    About this ebook

    Originally published in 1919 in All-Story Weekly as "The Curse of Capistrano", Johnston McCulley's novel "The Mark of Zorro" has inspired countless films and television adventures.

    Summary:
    Old California, in a bygone era of sprawling haciendas and haughty caballeros, suffers beneath the whip-lash of oppression. Missions are pillaged, native peasants are abused, and innocent men and women are persecuted by the corrupt governor and his army.

    But a champion of freedom rides the highways. His identity hidden behind a mask, the laughing outlaw Zorro defies the tyrant's might.
