Short Fiction Richardson, Henry Handel: Short Fiction. v1 21 Feb 2017

Henry Handel Richardson was the pen name of Ethel Florence Lindesay Robertson, nee Richardson (born January, 1870, in Australia, died March 1946, in England). She had one sister, born in 1871. In 1888 she left Australia and spent the rest of her life in Germany and England, making only one brief visit to Australia in 1912 to research family history.

'The End of a Childhood' serves as a postscript to The Fortunes of Richard Mahoney. 'The Life and Death of Peterle Luthy' and 'The Professor's Experiment' were originally combined as 'Two Tales of Old Strasbourg.' The other stories are 'Succedaneum', 'Mary Christina', 'The Coat', and 'Sister Ann'.
