Synopsis

Tailbot Baines Reed (1852 - 1893) was an English writer specializing in books for boys. His best known stories about boys' schools were The Fifth Form at St Dominic's and The Adventures of a Three Guinea Watch. Talbot Reed more than any other late 19th century writer was responsible for the popularity of school stories in British children's fiction. Tom Dick and Harry was published in 1894. Shortly after arriving at his new boys school, it is learned that Master Jones has come from a girl's school. He is given the nickname of Sarah. Even after this less than stellar beginning Tom is well respected and liked by the other boys. There some moments of drama, amusingly told, such as when our hero is unwittingly involved in almost blowing the school up! The story is filled with amusing events and a sure winner with young readers as well as their parents.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
