Book excerpt: This fiction presents an interesting account of the life of Richard Coope and his cousin Mistress Alison French at the time of the English Civil War of 1642-1644. Mistress Spitfire is a well-written work with incredibly depicted characters and an elevated writing style that holds the reader's attention throughout the story. Like this one, most of his fiction works largely pre-date his era, and even those few published within that period do not stick to the rigid and strict rules asserted, if not consistently monitored, by the Golden Age writers. The author of this book, Joseph Smith Fletcher (1863 – 1935), was an English journalist and author. He wrote more than 230 books, both fiction and non-fiction, on an expansive variety of subjects and was one of the most talented English writers of detective fiction.
