Growing up in the 19th Century
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
A wonderful book for boys. I can remember reading it almost 70 years ago and purchased it for my grandchildren. In addition to telling interesting stories, it provides an insight into history and how people, especially young boys lived in the latter part of the 19th Century.
An excellent book for young boys and girls!

I have read and reread this book since I was ten years old, and always enjoyed it! And I have given it to my children and grandchildren to read, and they also have enjoyed it! It is a book that remains in time, as Louisa May Alcott books do. It is about life in a young boys school. I highly recommend it!
