The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
Hugh Copplestone lived in Devon with his Aunt Alison because his parents were dead, but when his Aunt threatened to have his beloved dog Argos destroyed, Hugh ran away, taking Argos with him. He hoped to reach Oxford and to go to the University there, though as yet he had to money to pay the fees. On the way, however, Hugh met a band of strolling players, who asked him whether he would like to join them. Hugh was delighted, and together with Argos, he spent an exciting year traveling about the southern counties of England. But he did not forget that his real purpose was to reach the University, and, at last, it seemed that Hugh might achieve his ambition.
