The Strange Affair of Adelaide Harris

Two Leon Garfield novels are now available in hardcover and paperback editions. In The Strange Affair of Adelaide Harris (1971), the author describes, with wit and droll humor, two 18th-century schoolboys' experiment to see if a wolf will adopt and nourish a baby; originally published in the U.S. as Footsteps (1980), John Diamond relates the tale of young William Jones, who desperately seeks John Diamond, the son of a man wronged by William's father.
