Gynecocracy. A Narrative of the Adventures and Psychological Experiences of Julian Robinson (afterwards Viscount Ladywood) Under Petticoat-Rule, Written by Himself
Following an indiscretion with a maid, exuberant Julian Robinson is sent to his family¿s country estate to be educated by a beautiful and bewitching French governess, Mademoiselle de Chambonnard, who subjects him to a rigorous disciplinary regime of birching and cross-dressing. Complete in three volumes, Gynecocracy is an influential masterpiece of Victorian clandestine erotica, first published in 1893. It is significant for the novelty of its focus on the subjection of a young man to women through enforced cross-dressing. This Birchgrove Press edition includes the excerpt from Don Juan, which modern reprints often omit, and a number of chapter head decorations from a nineteenth-century edition. The authorship of Gynecocracy is usually attributed to an English lawyer, Stanislas Matthew de Rhodès (1857-1932), who is also credited with writing The Yellow Room (1891) and The Petticoat Dominant (1898), which are also available from Birchgrove Press.
The Mixer
In 'The Mixer', Edgar Wallace offers a riveting collection of short stories, each threading through the daring deeds of a single enigmatic figure known for his Robin Hood-esque escapades. The narrative is propelled by the audacious 'Mixer', a character who takes from the deceptive and gives to the more deserving. The text is characterized by its brisk pace, wry humor, and twist-laden plots, allowing readers to revel in the triumphs of an anti-hero who skillfully turns the tables on society's swindlers. Wallace's work stands within the golden era of crime fiction, his episodic storytelling and flamboyant character sketches echoing the literary context of early 20th-century adventure tales. Th...
The Return of Sherlock Holmes
The Return of Sherlock Holmes is the third collection of Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, published in 1905. It includes stories published in The Strand Magazine in 1903 and 1904, bringing Holmes for the first time into the twentieth century. Doyle had memorably “killed off” Holmes in a struggle with his nemesis Professor Moriarty in the story “The Final Problem,” which had appeared in 1893 (and which is included in the collection The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes). Intense public demand for more Holmes material after that had led to Doyle writing the novel The Hound of the Baskervilles, and then finally to return to writing Holmes short stories once more. The first story in this c...

All Souls' Night
All Souls' Night is a collection of horror stories by Hugh Walpole. Walpole was an English novelist. He was the son of an Anglican clergyman, intended for a career in the church but drawn instead to writing. Among those who encouraged him were the authors Henry James and Arnold Bennett. His skill at scene-setting and vivid plots, as well as his high profile as a lecturer, brought him a large readership in the United Kingdom and North America. He was a best-selling author in the 1920s and 1930s but has been largely neglected since his death._x000D_ Contents:_x000D_ The Whistle_x000D_ The Silver Mask_x000D_ The Staircase_x000D_ A Carnation for an Old Man_x000D_ Tarnhelm or, the Death of My Uncle Robert_x000D_ Mr.Oddy_x000D_ Seashore Macabre a Moment's Experience_x000D_ Lilac_x000D_ The Oldest Talland_x000D_ The Little Ghost_x000D_ Mrs. Lunt_x000D_ Sentimental but True_x000D_ Portrait in Shadow_x000D_ The Snow_x000D_ The Ruby Glass_x000D_ Spanish Dusk
