Carry On! By Herbert Strang
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Herbert Strang was the pseudonym of two English authors, George Herbert Ely (1866-1958) and Charles James L'Estrange (1867-1947). They specialized in writing adventure stories for boys, both historical and modern-day. Both men were staff members of Oxford University Press, which published their books, giving them a patina of social status and approval for the parents of their intended readership. Their work showed a broad general debt to that of Jules Verne. Ely and L'Estrange have been classified as "popular writers of imperial fiction" and "successors of G. A. Henty". This novel is a story about the fight for Baghdad. No Jacket. Hardback, octavo, pictorial cloth lettered red, black and yellow (although colours faded on spine). Pictorial endpapers are stained. Colour frontispiece, b&w illustrations. On rear of ffep is a written presentation to a school pupil, while on rear of frontispiece are two names of pupils. Pages 29-31 are torn at edge. Some marks to pages show it has been read, but text is clear.
