The English comic novelist R. S. Surtees wrote sporting and satirical masterpieces, shining a light on the foibles and obsessions of early Victorian England. He created Mr. Jorrocks, one of the great comic characters of English literature, a Cockney grocer obsessed with fox hunting, whose various misadventures would go on to influence Dickens' 'The Pickwick Papers'. For the first time in publishing history, this comprehensive eBook presents Surtees' complete fictional works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
