    I'm planning to start a new thing this year – The Classic Tales Book Club. It will be a monthly meeting over Zoom, where we can talk about the books we love. Might be about the stuff on the show, maybe not. But I figured it's about time we start to know each other better. There's a familiar comfort with the classics. I just love them. I'd love to have a discussion!

    So keep your ears open for the Classic Tales Book Club. Easiest book club ever. Details coming soon.

    Dorothy Sayers was a pioneer in the world of detective fiction, and in her second novel featuring Lord Peter Wimsey, she deepens her craft. In his first outing in Whose Body, Wimsey verges on caricature, and in Clouds of Witness, he's drawn as more of a man of action. Sayers will deepen this aspect of Wimsey in subsequent novels.

    The title for this book comes from the Bible: Hebrews Chapter 12, verse 1: "Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us."

    The character of the Cisco Kid was originally created in this short story by O. Henry, but he went through a huge transformation before he became the character widely known today.

    The Cisco Kid is not a beloved character in his first appearance in today's story, first published in 1907. Nope, he's a vicious killer. However, by the time of his third feature film, The Old Arizona in 1927, Cisco was revamped as a witty Mexican hero, winning the Oscar for Best Actor for Warner Brothers – the second ever given!

    Nearly thirty films were produced with the character, along with 156 television episodes produced between 1950 and 1956.

    But in today's story by O. Henry, Cisco is a duplicitous scoundrel. The kind that can't be killed.

    And now, The Caballero's Way, by O. Henry.
