C. McNeile or Sapper, was a British soldier and author. Drawing on his experiences in the trenches during the First World War, he started writing short stories and getting them published in the Daily Mail. After the war McNeile left the army and continued writing, although he changed from war stories to thrillers. In 1920 he published Bulldog Drummond, whose eponymous hero became his best-known creation. The character was based on McNeile himself, on his friend Gerard Fairlie and on English gentlemen generally. His stories are either directly about the war, or contain people whose lives have been shaped by it. His thrillers are a continuation of his war stories, with upper class Englishmen defending England from foreigners plotting against it.Contents:Novels:MuftiBulldog DrummondThe Black GangJim MaitlandThe Third RoundThe Final CountThe Female of the SpeciesTemple TowerTiny CarteretThe Island of TerrorThe Return of Bulldog DrummondKnock-OutBulldog Drummond at BayChallengeShort Story Collections:The Lieutenant and OthersSergeant Michael Cassidy, R.E.Men, Women and GunsNo Man's LandThe Human TouchThe Man in Ratcatcher and Other StoriesThe Dinner ClubOut of the BlueJim BrentWord of HonourShorty BillThe Saving ClauseWhen Carruthers LaughedJohn WaltersThe Finger of FateRonald StandishThe Creaking DoorThe Missing ChauffeurThe Haunted RectoryA Matter of TarThe House with the KennelsThe Third MessageMystery of the Slip CoachThe Second DogThe Men in YellowThe Men with SamplesThe Empty HouseThe Tidal River…
