Illustrated history of the French Saint novels.
http://www.lofficier.com/saint.html
ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF THE FRENCH "SAINT" NOVELS
From the late 1930s to the mid-1960s, French publisher put out 78 French Saint books, only 37 of which were direct translations (or adaptations) of Leslie Charteris' novels. Not counting two "collaborations" with Fleming Lee, it means that a staggering 39 Saint novels were written directly in French, for the French market.
Old titles were kept in print, often reissued under new covers, while new ones were released, virtually on a quarterly basis during the 1950s and 1960s. These books were inexpensive and entertaining, and proved extremely popular with the French public. They sported distinctive, attractive color covers, and were easily found on the newstands, in railway stations, etc.
The purpose of this site is to present a history of the publication of these French Saint works. In the absence of exhaustive published research, I had to rely for information mostly on the set of books available to me, as well as information provided by Ian Dickerson, Burl Barer, Jean-Luc Buard, Francis Valery, and Daniel Bodenheimer. I welcome any further corrections and additions submitted by the readers.
The history of the French Saint books is little known. Most, if not all, French readers assume that there is no difference between the French pastiches, written by Madeleine Michel-Tyl, but credited to Leslie Charteris, and the originals. Even a series of reprints by the

Leslie Charteris (1907-1993) - in full: Leslie Charles Bowyer Yin American mystery-adventure writer, born in Singapore. Charteris is best-known for his highly popular " The Saint" stories, depicting the adventures of Simon Templar, a hero outside the law, who hunted down criminals and con artists whom the law could not or would not touch. The first screen adaptation was made in 1938; the TV series started in 1963 with Roger Moore as the Saint. Simon Templar's return to the big screen was seen in 1997, this time with Val Klimer in the title role. "It is truly said that adventures are to the adventurous. Simon had about him that indefinable atmosphere of romance and adventurousness which is given to some favored men in every age, and it attracted adventure as inevitably as a magnet attracts iron filings." (from Enter the Saint Leslie Charteris was born Leslie Charles Bowyer Yin. His father was Dr. S.C. Yin and mother Florence Bowyer. He learned Chinese and Malay from native servants before he could speak English. Charteris was educated at private schools, and was keen to run the school magazines. At the age of seventeen Charteris sold his first fiction story. He attended Cambridge University, where he studied law. After the success of his first books, X ESQUIRE (1927) and the Simon Templar story, MEET THE TIGER (1927), the young author abandoned his studies, and changed his name to Leslie Charteris. Experiments with other detective-protagonists were not fruitful, and he brought back the Saint in his sixth book, ENTER THE SAINT (1930). "We Saints are normally souls of peace and goodwill towards men. But we don't like crooks, bloodsuckers, traders in vice and damnation..."

by George Alex Windish

Leslie Charteris is not a forgotten writer. Though he wrote other things, he will go down in literary history with his character, Simon Templar, the urbane, sophisticated, gentleman-adventurer better known as the Saint. Charteris was born in 1907, the son of Dr. S.C. Yin, whose roots could be traced to the old emperors of China. Charteris was christened Leslie Charles Bowyer Yin, and learned several language before he learned English. He was not a distinguished scholar, but did manage to write a novel while he was attending Cambridge. He continued to write, but seldom made money at it. To keep himself fed, he worked as a policeman, drove a bus, prospected for gold, worked in tin mines, fished for pearl, tended bar, and became a professional bridge player. In 1926, he legally changed his name.

Customer Reviews
Saint Saga #1.66, #03, #04, #08 Five complete Saint novels, unabridged? Not if the list of contents on the cover is accurate. The Saint Closes the Case (original title The Last Hero) and The Avenging Saint (Knight Templar) are certainly complete novels, and what's more, two of the best. But "The Man Who Was Clever" and "The Lawless Lady" are merely two of the three stories in Enter the Saint, the other being "The Policeman with Wings". The Saint vs. Scotland Yard (original title The Holy Terror) is not a novel at all, but three more "novellas" of the same kind. So this looks to me not like 5 complete Saint books, but 3.66.
