- This edition includes the following editor's introduction: Grant Allen, the life of one of the most versatile writers of English literature
Originally published in 1897, "An African Millionaire" is a classic of crime and adventure by Canadian author Grant Allen. "An African Millionaire" is one of the first books to feature agentleman crook and it is perfect for fans of books such as Arsene Lupin, Gentleman Thief.
This classic in rogue fiction tells the story of Sir Charles Van Drift, a confident and handsome South African millionaire that spends his time jetting to exotic locales with his wife and in-laws. But on one fateful trip to the Riviera, Van Drift meets his match in Colonel Clay. Posing alternately as a seer, a curate, and a German professor, the master of disguise swindles Van Drift through three continents and poses a serious risk to his South African diamond fortune. Colonel Clay, the notorious con artist and thief, has triumphed. But who is this master of disguise, really?
