Description
This is a story of public-school life, set in a boys' boarding school. It starts off with the entry to the school of a little new boy, not quite eleven years old, who also happens to have an older brother in the school.
Serialised in "Thr Boy's Own Paper" prior to book publication in 1881. Reed's school stories for boys (all of which appeared in the BOP) popularised the genre.
