Omschrijving

Jorrocks's Jaunts and Jollities is a classic novel by Robert Smith Surtees, first published in 1838. The book is a collection of stories that follow the adventures of Mr. Jorrocks, a jovial and eccentric sporting character, and his friends as they go on various hunting and fishing trips throughout England. The stories are written in a humorous and satirical style, with Surtees poking fun at the characters' quirks and foibles. Jorrocks, in particular, is portrayed as a lovable but somewhat clueless figure, who is always getting into amusing scrapes and misadventures. Throughout the book, Surtees also provides vivid descriptions of the English countryside, its customs and traditions, and the various animals that inhabit it. The novel is a celebration of country life and the pleasures of the outdoors, as well as a commentary on the social and cultural norms of the time. Overall, Jorrocks's Jaunts and Jollities is a delightful and entertaining read, full of wit, humor, and charm. It is a must-read for anyone interested in English literature, sporting culture, or the history of the British countryside.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
