An interesting, entertaining read took a while as it was written in the 1800's style of speaking. I sort of enjoyed Lord Byron although he was most difficult to follow. He was truly an odd, funny, difficult fellow --- I enjoyed his pet Bear, The Professor and will always wonder what happened to him. I enjoyed how Lord Byron invited himself into the murder investigation but then would get so sidetracked by women and drink he forgot what he was doing but his explanations were comical and was glad when they finally found the murder! Higher classes had their advantages.
