Book Review
Francis Marion Crawford August 2, 1854 - April 9, 1909 was an American writer noted for his many novels, especially those set in Italy, and for his classic weird and fantastic stories.
The Saracinesca series is perhaps known to be his best work, with the third in the series, Don Orsino (1892) set against the background of a real estate bubble, told with effective concision.
