| Mr Sponge's Sporting Tour, Part 1 - R.S. Surtees
Mr. Sponge is his name; fox-hunting and fortune-hunting are his game. Yep -- like Becky Sharp, he's an anti-hero. This fun and funny 1853 novel gives us an unromantic but not unsympathetic look at post-Regency England from top to bottom, through sports. Since foxhunters in England are now a persecuted minority, better read this book before PETA throws red paint on it!
