The Adventures of the Scarlet Pimpernel

The Adventures of the Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Emmuska Orczy. I do not own the story. Just thought of putting this great swash-buckling, adventures of the original superhero. copy from Project Gutenberg.

The second collection of short stories featuring Sir Percy Blakeney, The Scarlet Pimpernel.

Set in revolutionary France in 1793, these further adventures will thrill the first time reader as much as those who are familiar with the Pimpernel and the League. Their arch enemy Chauvelin and the Committee of Public Safety are never far behind, whilst back in England the beautiful Marguerite maintains her devotion.­
