Beschreibung
A RICH AND COLORFUL NOVEL SET IN A SMALL TOWN IN THE 1890's.It was cold the day the boat docked in Halifax and the boy had no overcoat or mittens. He was alone and shivering. A square oilcloth had been sewed to the back of his coat. On it, in crude red letters, had been printed:"e;This is LUDAR PRENTICE."e;He has no money. He is going to his father"e;Vivien Prentice at Balfour, Ontario, Canada."e;BE KIND TO HIM."e;So began the adventures of an English boy who grew to manhood surrounded by the vice and virtue, greed and generosity, love and hate of a small Canadian town at the turn of the nineteenth century."e;A story of romance and adventure that will keep you reading late into the night."e;-Mr. Norman E. Sheppard, Moorestown, New Jersey"e;Son of a Hundred Kings is one of the cleanest, most heart-warming books I've read in a long time. All of the characters seem human and real."e;-Miss Mar Templeton, Langdale, Alabama"e;A well-written book with an interesting plot. It had enough suspense and tension so that I didn't want to stop reading it."e;-Mr. Warren, G. Grebner, Huron, South Dakota
