Bodley Book #5

Horace Scudder (1838-1902) was a teacher and author. He wrote a number of children's books and for a time was the editor of the Atlantic Monthly as well as the Riverside Magazine for Young People.

The eight books which chronicle the adventures of the extended Bodley family are divided into two chronologically based series. The five title first series takes place between 1848 and 1852. The Bodley family consists of Mr. and Mrs. Bodley and their three children: Nathan, Phillippa, and Lucy. In the earlier series other characters also are significant: Ned Adams, a cousin, hired man Martin and his brother Hen.

The stories include journeys to Cape Cod, Roxbury and Boston, Gloucester, Hartford, and New York City. The final book, Mr. Bodley Abroad includes Mr. Bodley's letters from and about Europe. It also includes the family's more local Boston area adventures.

Illustrated paper over boards. Lightly rubbed cover with some wear to the edges and corner tips. About 8-1/4 x 7 with 210 pages. Illustrated hardcover children's book. Scarce.
