Contents include: "Introduction", "Breeding", "The Arts", "The Empire Spirit", "Love of Animals", "Domestic", "Social Sense", "Rural", "Travel", and "Sport". Read & Co. Books is proudly republishing this classic collection of cartoons now in a new edition complete with the original text and artwork and a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
