Often hailed as a whimsical instructional guide on rat-catching, this book transcends its subject matter to explore the rich tapestry of rural life. While it offers insightful anecdotes about rats, ferrets, and dogs, it is infused with Barkleys wit, keen observations, and a palpable love for the countryside. Through the lens of fictional rat-catcher Bob Joy, we discover the intriguing proposition that rat-catching could be a fitting career path for boys attending prestigious schools like Eton and Harrow. Join Bob as he shares his adventures in both rat and rabbit catching, all while taking playful jabs at the elite public school system and weaving in delightful tales about dogs and the charming quirks of country folk. A delightful blend of humor and storytelling awaits in this captivating narrative. (Clive Catterall)Copyright Biographies 2.0 アート 文学史・文学批評
