- Synopsis
- 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:“This is LUDAR PRENTICE.“He has no money. He is going to his father“Vivien Prentice at Balfour, Ontario, Canada.“BE KIND TO HIM.”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.“A story of romance and adventure that will keep you reading late into the night.”—Mr. Norman E. Sheppard, Moorestown, New Jersey“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.”—Miss Mar Templeton, Langdale, Alabama“A well-written book with an interesting plot. It had enough suspense and tension so that I didn’t want to stop reading it.”—Mr. Warren, G. Grebner, Huron, South Dakota
