 | | Sir Denis Nayland Smith is the opponent of the diabolically ingenious villain for more than a quarter of a century. |
 | | Fu-Manchu is dead, so what have we to fear?" "We have to fear," replied Smith throwing himself into a corner of the settee, "the Si-Fan!"' In 1915 Rohmer invented the detective character Gaston Max, who appeared first in THE YELLOW CLAW. |
 | | In THE ISLAND OF FU MANCHU (1941) Sir Lionel Barton, the greatest Orientalist in Europe, says that Fu Manchu is "an enemy whose insects, bacteria, stranglers, strange poisons, could do more harm in a week than Hitler's army could do in a year." After World War II the Rohmers moved to New York City. |
