Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Limehouse Nights
Battling was of a type that is too common in the eastern districts of London; a type that upsets all accepted classifications. He wouldn't be classed. He was a curious mixture of athleticism and degeneracy. He could run like a deer, leap like a greyhound, fight like a machine, and drink like a suction hose. He was a bully; he had the courage of the high hero. He was an Open-air sport he had the vices of a French decadent.
