Hello there ,

I have over 2000 Hadley Chase in different covers , languages , etc...

My favourite is still " THE WORLD IN MY POCKET " - Panther p/b edition of the snake coiled around the steering wheel...

Also have " MISS CALLAGHAN COMES TO GRIEF " and " BLONED'S REQUIEUM " - fairly rare ...

"Treason is but trusted like the fox

who, ne'er so tame, so cherish'd and locked up,

will have a wild trick of his ancestors"



Who said this and to whom?

owo2390:

Worcester to Vernon

from King Henry the Fourth

Damn! i think you're close. But before i give you the pass mark, who wrote King Henry the fourth?

....because the quote was repeated in a James Hardley Chase novel
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by owo2390(m): 7:08pm On Dec 31, 2005
William Shakespeare
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 7:15pm On Dec 31, 2005
owo2390:

William Shakespeare

Correct! Men i'm impressed!!!


.... like i said earlier on, it was repeated in a James Hardley Chase novel. I want to know who said it and to whom?
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by Jalal(m): 11:44am On Jan 02, 2006
@ Alistair over 2000 Chase really Well then there must be some 1920 titles dat i havent read yet!!!
I know the author wrote under various pen names 2 or 3,are all those titles written under the name Chase or under another pen name. pls shed mo light!!!
Thanks
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 12:57pm On Jan 02, 2006
I wondered at that too Jalal, and perhaps maybe he has same title from different publishers, chase definitely didnt write up to 2000 novels, even titles like "things women do" if anyone has read it will have considerable doubt about chase being the author, merely going by the plot and execution, it cant be chase or he is senile and close to his grave at the time of writing. cool

@Jalal, are we still on, im still waiting o cool
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 1:06pm On Jan 02, 2006
cushman:

"Treason is but trusted like the fox

who, ne'er so tame, so cherish'd and locked up,

will have a wild trick of his ancestors"



Who said this and to whom?


People, i'm still waiting for the answer!
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 1:13pm On Jan 02, 2006
Its in Trusted like the fox,

i cant remember the names of the characters anymore but it was said about this guy who broke his parole during the war.
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 1:23pm On Jan 02, 2006
Yeah, it's in the Trusted like the fox alright.

Want me to mention the names?
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 1:43pm On Jan 02, 2006
I already said i can't remember the names; I want you to mention the names but it will be unfair of those in this forum who are still trying to figure it out...so wait a little more but while youre still at it, i have my own poser for you:

who said this and of whom was it said?:

She was a phantom of delight
when first she gleamed upon my sight
a lovely apparition sent
to be a moments ornament.


The prize is in two fold

1)Name the Hadley chase the poem was used
2) Who said it and of whom?

You want to give it a shot cushman? Jalal? Bagoma? popeson?
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 1:55pm On Jan 02, 2006
