Description - Being a true account of the adventures of Masters Tommy and Harry with their beloved tutor Mr Barlow. 77 humorous illustrations by Linley Sambourne. The author dedicates the book to his two eldest sons in the following words; "This book is for your instruction - negatively. Your pastors and masters will teach you what to do, but the New History of Sandford and Merton will. I trust, teach you what to don't. Beware. too, of Mr Barlow, an immortal humbug. Be good - be virtuous, and save up your pocket money in order to provide for your father in his old age." Undated, circa 1880. Green cloth a liitle dull, spine ends lightly rubbed. Foxing to foredge.
