Thomas Mayne Reid : "The Headless Horseman"

'"In my childhood, I never met another who could not read", [H.M. Tomlinson] recalled. "Some of them could be so excited by the printed page that they passed on the fun they had found, and thus... I was introduced to Mayne Reid, and again to Harrison Ainsworth, with "The Headless Horseman" and "Rookwood"".'

Century: 1850-1899     Reader/Listener/Group: H.M. Tomlinson      Print: Book
