Beggars On Horseback

Beggars On Horseback is an evocative novel that was originally published in 1924. The book describes the social commentaries and superficiality of the Jazz Age which is mostly termed as the post-World War and majorly known for its dynamic culture, and changes in overgenerous life. The story of the book describes the narrative of a protagonist who is quite a talented and struggling artist amazingly known for his romantic interest towards Pamela Thursby. Along with this, the novel assists in exploring the themes of materialism and invidious conflicts between art and commerce people who have been facing moral dilemmas and changes in society. The book Beggars on Horseback describes gentle pursuit to metaphor suggesting artistic creativity and social status. The characters grapple in the novel to make choices in a world of finances and creating integrity appears to be odd. Jesse offers a commentary on the effects of putting material achievement before artistic passion by combining drama, humour, and symbolism to analyse the values of the day. The book, which perfectly captures the spirit and paradoxes of the Roaring Twenties, is regarded as a classic of social satire.

Murder and Morality in Victorian Britain

This book explores the life of Madeleine Smith, who in 1857 was tried for poisoning her secret lover. As well as charting the course of this illicit relationship and Madeleine’s subsequent trial, the authors draw on a wide range of sources to pursue themes such as the nature of gender relations and the extent of women’s social and commercial activities, and to bring vividly to life the world of the mid-Victorian middle class.The book contains new discoveries about Madeleine’s long and colorful life after the trial which confirm the view that it is only in fiction that the bad end unhappily. The book will be of interest to academic social historians, but the fascination of its subject matter and the way in which much rich material is used to evoke a vivid sense of time and place, will also promote a wider interest among a more general readership.

The shocking true story of a diamond theft gone wrong. In December 1937, four respectable young men in their twenties, all products of elite English public schools, conspired to lure to the luxurious Hyde Park Hotel a representative of Cartier, the renowned jewelry firm. There, the “Mayfair men” brutally bludgeoned diamond salesman Etienne Bellenger and made off with eight rings that today would be worth approximately half a million pounds. Such well-connected young people were not supposed to appear in the prisoner’s dock at the Old Bailey. Not surprisingly, the popular newspapers had a field day responding to the public’s insatiable appetite for news about the upper-crust rowdies a...
