Sir Nigel by Arthur Conan Doyle, Fiction, Mystery & Detective, Historical, Action Adventure in Bloomington, MN

Dame History is so austere a lady that if one has been so ill-advised as to take a liberty with her one should hasten to make amends by repentance and confession.
Events have been transposed to the extent of some few months in this narrative in order to preserve the continuity and evenness of the story. . . . -- Arthur Conan Doyle "Undershaw," November 30, 1905
