Description	The Brighter Buccaneer is a collection of short stories by Leslie Charteris, first published in the United Kingdom by Hodder and Stoughton in June 1933. This was the eleventh book to feature the adventures of Simon Templar, alias "The Saint". It was the first volume to make use of the short story format; previously Charteris had written either short novels (aka novellas) or full-length novels featuring the character. This format would dominate the series during the late 1940s and through the 1950s.Charteris originally wrote these stories for Empire News, a British publication that contracted the author to provide a weekly series of stories featuring The Saint. These stories were published in Empire (many were retitled for the book) between August and November 1932, and therefore predate several of the stories in the preceding book, Once More the Saint, though little attempt is made at maintaining continuity with the major novellas and novels.Charteris would publish a second collection of Empire News shorts as Boodle (also published as The Saint Intervenes).The story "The Unblemished Bootlegger" introduces a new member of Templar's "family" – Peter Quentin.
