George Grossmith and Weedon Grossmith

This classic comic novel, first published in the United Kingdom in 1892, has been hailed by writers as varied as Evelyn Waugh and Ruskin Bond as one of the funniest novels of all time. Reissued as part of a series curated by Bond himself, this book is written as a diary of Charles Pooter, a pompous and accident-prone Englishman who lives with his family in London. This chronicle of endless misadventures should delight readers who love Three Men in A Boat, another classic comic novel of the era.
