A Dubious Codicil

by Michael Wharton

The sequel to "The Missing Will", this book follows Wharton's career into the "Daily Telegraph" where he established himself as a satirical columnist under the name of "Peter Simple". Wharton became noted for the strange characters that populated his writings and his fiercely opinionated view of affairs, which is reflected in this book. His life itself, as he flitted from bohemian London to the North, was regarded as highly unorthodox.
