Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1821, is a lively and humorous verse novel by a then-unknown country squire. The author's experiences and anecdotes, from mishaps while shooting to a disastrous dancing lesson in London, are recreated in realistic and often laugh-out-loud detail. Set against a backdrop of early 19th-century rural England, it is full of authentic period detail and entertaining accounts of everyday life and customs of the time. The loosely-connected narrative gives a unique snapshot of the life of a country squire, his family, and his friends in this period of social and economic change in Britain.
