Famous Impostors (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

By Bram Stoker

This last (1910) work of nonfiction by the author of Dracula sketches “impersonators, swindlers, and humbugs,” including pretenders of royalty; witches, magicians, and clairvoyants; women disguised as men; and the legend of the Wandering Jew. He also exposes history’s greatest hoaxes, such as the claim that Queen Elizabeth was a man.
