Staff Recommendation - The Mark of Zorro

The Mark of Zorro
by Johnston McCulley

Published in 1919, The Mark of Zorro was originally titled "The Curse of Capistrano;" the title was changed the following year to match the title of Douglas Fairbanks' film version. While hardly great literature, the book is a quick and easy read, and it nonetheless has an appeal stemming in part from its humorous touches. It is interesting to note the differences between the story as originally written and the later adaptations of it. -- recommended by Peter J. - Bennett Martin Public Library/Virtual Services
