A very lengthy book, indeed. This 3rd book in the "Bad Boy" series comes in at almost twice the size of some of the others. Hennery and his Pa travel to foreign lands meeting everyone from common as muck folks to Kings and Potentates. The Bad Boy, never one to cowtow to the evils of good manners attempts to find good funÑhis styleÑwherever they go. The Boy can be found playing pranks on the father, and both get into scrapes which generally lead to them having to leave that country in a hurry. This edition comes complete with all the original charming black and white illustrations. As with other books in the Bad Boy series, we ask that you read the Preview and heed the warning if you are prone to being offended by the language of the early 20th century. THIS IS NOT A BOOK FOR CHILDREN.
