Synopsis

Written in 1889 for young boys, this book still has charms that might appeal to the youth of today -- if they have developed their vocabulary. It's told by avuncular Major Mendax and it features over 50 fantastic stories of life in the wild, as only the imperial British could live it. You'll meet clever lions, mendacious tigers and even worse natives as the braggardly Major keeps his grandchildren agog -- and incredulous -- over tales of valor and stupidity.
