Stolen From Gypsies is a Shakespeare-meets-Monty Python historical comedy by award winning playwright Noble Smith. A bedridden English lord narrates a magical tale to his story-loving servanta tale involving a kidnapped Gypsy babe, a tongue-tied accountant, a rich merchant, the merchant's ravishing daughter; magicians, spells, contracts in blood; pirates, rubes, fops, purloined estates; demons, transformations, duels, carnal temptations, imprisonment and redemption. It is illustrated with twenty beautiful pen and ink drawings. A fascinating glossary of words and personages from the era is also included.

From the Publisher:
Aubrey House Publishing is pleased to bring you Noble Smith's comic novel Stolen From Gypsies. Noble's love for language, history, and the absurd plot constructions of Shakespearean comedy are evident in this laugh-out-loud story. The book is beautifully illustrated by artist Carol Ingram.
