The Fortunes of Nigel. Part 2

It is a winter's evening in the historic university town of Cambridge at the end of the nineteenth century. In college rooms, a group of friends gathers. A fire flickers in the grate and, silently, Montague Rhodes James places a lighted candle by his chair, shuffles his papers, and begins to read… So the classic ghost stories of M. R. James were presented to the world. Now, in this definitive 4-part recording, are collected all of James's published tales of 'pleasing terror'. The 7 stories featured in Voume Three are: Mr Humphreys and his Inheritance; The Story of a Disappearance and an Appearance; An Episode of Cathedral History; The Residence at Whitminster; The Diary of Mr Poynter; Two Doctors; and The Uncommon Prayer-Book.
