A Tale of Weston School. By LEWIS HOUGH. With 6 full-page Pictures in
black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth extra, 3_s._ 6_d._
A story of school life which will be read with genuine interest,
especially as it exposes some of the dangers which may beset lads who
are ill instructed at home or have been thrown among unscrupulous
companions. The descriptions of the characters of the boys at Dr.
Jolliffe's are vivid and truthful. The narrative throughout is
bright, easy, and lighted by touches of humour.
"Young people who appreciate 'Tom Brown's School-days' will find
this story a worthy companion to that fascinating book. There is
the same manliness of tone, truthfulness of outline, avoidance of
exaggeration and caricature, and healthy morality as characterized
the masterpiece of Mr. Hughes."--_Newcastle Journal._
