Omschrijving
A witty carriage ride through parlour rooms and passport queues, Abroad With The Jimmies invites you to travel back to the turn of the century with warmth, mischief, and a keen eye for social life. Lilian Bell's domestic comedy novel captures a family on the road, blending humour with keen observations of fashion, manners, and the growing curiosity about Europe. The Jimmies' adventures abroad become a canvas for travel-the-world satire and society satire abroad, where misadventures and moments of tenderness illuminate the hopes and foibles of a curious era. The book's charm lies in its lucid storytelling, vivid settings, and the way everyday life is a stage for larger questions about love, duty, and the pull of new experiences. This edition honours the book's literary and historical significance, restoring a beloved classic for today's readers and for future generations. It speaks to casual readers seeking a sparkling, accessible historical novel and to classic-literature collectors who prize authentic voice, social texture, and a gateway to early twentieth century fiction. The text also stands as a window into europe travel settings, paris fashion life, and the cultural currents that shaped a generation. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, Abroad With The Jimmies is more than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. It's a well-loved, illustrated complete edition that invites both new readers and seasoned enthusiasts to savour a public domain classic in a fresh, resonant voice.
