8vo, green cloth (bumped & soiled; small pencil mark & light stain to rear cover with small piece out of cloth at top edge; head of spine frayed) titled in black. 287 & [1] pp. (rear hinge cracked; slightly darkened). Color frontispiece, 3 color plates & profuse B&W illustrations. Good. "This book has been written for the delight not only of child-readers, but of such of their elders as like and understand small boys. Its aim has been to present a vivid and faithful picture of the daily life of the average boy from the epoch of the cave-dwellers to the middle of Queen Victoria' s reign, and to trace, by the way, the evolution of the modern attitude toward children from that of the earlier and less sympathethic periods in history."--From the author's preface.
