Fourteen real puzzles of history examined like criminal cases - Elizabeth Canning's missing month, the Campden wonder, Kaspar Hauser, the Gowrie conspiracy, the Cagliostro business. Lang applied the methods of the detective story to the archives and did it before anyone else. This edition is bound with 60 plates of paintings, among them works by Paul Delaroche, J. M. W. Turner and Franciabigio, dating from 1514 to 1916.
