In a happy synchronicity, the first story in his volume is The Man Who Would Be King, and I have just read about (a rather sub-Dravot) James Brooke of Sarawak in the Atlas of Extinct Countries.

The Brazilian Cat by ACD much better, a genuinely fun little story.

These stories are mostly awful. Which is, in its own way, quite interesting. An encapsulation of the dreary state of fin-de-siecle writing. The Great War cannot come soon enough to blow all this up!
