Synopsis :
London 1759 and Jack's life is easy. A scholar at Westminster School, a master with cricket bat or billiard cue, the leader of a gang of bucks about the Town, he has both a girl he worships...and a courtesan teaching him the more basic arts of love. Yet he plans to give up all carousing, sit the examinations for Cambridge, find a career in any field he chooses. If he can just stay out of trouble for one night...From the billiard halls and brothels of London to a clash of Empires on the Plains of Abraham, Jack life is forever altered by the tragedies of that night. Through duels, battles, frantic escapes and a brutal winter spent in a cave in Canada, Jack learns the truth of his father's words...as well as a dozen things to do with a dead bear. A year on, the schoolboy will vanish, a man appear. But first he must learn to kill. To come of age, Jack Absolute must be blooded.
À propos de l?auteur: C.C. Humphreys was born in Toronto and grew up in Los Angeles and London. A third generation actor and writer on both sides of his family, he is married and lives on Salt Spring Island, Canada. www.cchumphreys.com

Hardback. Etat : Mint. Etat de la jaquette : Mint. First Edition. Multi-faceted Humphreys: actor, playwright, novelist, has been beguiled by Jack Absolute (from Sheridan's 'The Rivals') ever since he first played him onstage in 1987. When the run ended he missed Jack; found he 'wouldn't go away' and finally, as a novelist, re-created him as the hero of this rip-roaring saga of adventure, friendship, treachery and romance. In The Blooding of Jack Absolute you are introduced to Jack at a point in his life where everything is changing. He has been claimed by his parents and his status is changed. He is off to London to learn all the things a young nobleman should know. The author allows us a peek into the lives and prejudices of eighteenth century England before sending us on a mission to the wilds of Canada and the side of General Wolfe. In the end, Jack will learn that the blood does not make the man. This copy is in MINT condition in an unclipped and protected dustwrapper that has a small closed tear to the rear bottom corner so best described as FINE. This copy has been SIGNEDby the author in black ink to the title page with no other dedication. Ref C6. Signed by Author(s). N° de réf. du vendeur 001667
