Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Young Knight-Errant: Or Cruising in the West Indies "A Young Knight-Errant" is the third volume of the "All-Over-the-World" series; and while it contains a completed story which may be read without reference to its predecessors, it is a continuation of the adventures of Louis Belgrave, introduced in the initial story of the set, and to some extent of all the cabin party sailing in the Guardian-Mother, the magnificent steam-yacht of the "Millionaire at Sixteen." The young gentleman makes no display of his wealth, for he handles it himself only to a very limited extent, and is as modest as one in his position ought to be, though his surroundings are calculated to inflate his vanity. Louis is as honest, respectful, and considerate as when he was practically and comparatively a poor boy. Above all, he is as thoroughly devoted to his mother as when they lived together in the old house at Von Blonk Park. The whole family, reinforced by the presence of several others, have made a new home on board of the steamer, and the hero is still surrounded by all the hallowing influences of his boyhood´s fireside.
