In Penrod and Sam, the imaginative adventures of Tarkingtons 10-year-old Penrod Schofield continue. Penrods sidekick is Samuel Williams, and together they improvise, causing general mischief and disorder wherever they go. In picaresque fashion, a fencing battle takes them all through the neighborhood; they narrowly escape serious injury while making boastful demonstrations with a loaded gun; they indulge in dubious "nishiation" practices for their secret society; they steal food for the starving horse concealed in the Schofields empty stable; they attempt to fish a cat out of a cistern using a pair of trousers; and they cause general chaos at Miss Amy Rennsdales dance. Familiar characters from the earlier Penrod volumeMaurice Levy, Georgie Basset, Roddy Bitts, Herman and Verman, and Marjorie Jonesmake their appearance in Penrod and Sam. This is a delightfully nostalgic look at Tarkingtons turn-of-the-century Indiana.
