Rupert of Hentzau Illustrated Anthony Hope

Rupert of Hentzau is a sequel by Anthony Hope to The Prisoner of Zenda, written in 1895 but not published in book form until 1898. The novel was serialized in The Pall Mall Magazine and McClure's Magazine from December 1897 through June 1898. The story is set within a framing narrative told by a supporting character from The Prisoner of Zenda. The frame implies that the events related in both books took place in the late 1870s and early 1880s.
