Master Eustace (Hardcover)

A frequent source of complaint with Eustace, when he had no more immediate displeasure, was that he had not known his father. He had formed a mental image of the late Mr. Garnyer which I am afraid hardly tallied at all points with the original. He knew that his father had been a man of pleasure, and he had painted his portrait in ideal hues. What a charming father----a man of pleasure the boy thought, fancying that gentlemen of this stamp take their pleasure in the nursery.
