Young Lord Stranleigh

Young Lord Stranleigh is the 1908 novel by Robert Barr. The books opening line sets the tone, "It was shortly after nine o'clock in the morning that young Lord Stranleigh of Wychwood, in a most leisurely fashion, descended the front steps of his town house into the street. The young man was almost too perfectly dressed." The story follows Young Lord Stranleigh as he pursues his three passions, finance, mining, and sailing. Written with comedic wit that is unperilled, even today, it may not be appropriate at times, but it is written in such a way that puts the book clearly in the realm of timeless classics.
