By HENRY W. NESFIELD, author of “A Chequered Career.”
“Mr. Nesfield’s name as an author is established on such a pleasantly
sound foundation that it is a recognized fact that, in taking up a
book written by him, the reader is in for a delightful half-hour,
during which his risible and humorous faculties will be pleasantly
stimulated. The history of young Archibald Highton Tregauntly,
whose fortunes we follow from the cradle to when experience is just
beginning to teach him a few wholesome lessons, is as smart and brisk
as it is possible to be.”--_Whitehall Review._
“It will be matter for regret if the brisk and lively style of Mr.
Nesfield, who at times reminds us of Lever, should blind people
to the downright wickedness of such a perverted career as is here
described.”--_Daily Chronicle._
