Seven Victorian tales gathered for an 1890s anthology: Charles Reade’s railway flirtation in the Box Tunnel, Amelia B. Edwards’s eerie Four-Fifteen Express, Thomas Hardy’s shepherd’s christening invaded by a hangman in The Three Strangers, Wilkie Collins’s widow, Anthony Hope’s philosopher, and comic mishaps by F. W. Robinson and Angelo Lewis.
