Baron Trump’s Marvellous Underground Journey

The young hero Baron Trump, restless and full of curiosity, embarks on a fantastical journey into a marvelous underground world of strange peoples and wondrous adventures, guided by his dog and a mysterious book. Lockwood’s whimsical Victorian fantasy blends Jules Verne-style subterranean wonder with the tall-tale spirit of a boy’s adventure story. Long forgotten, the book found new fame for the curious coincidence of its hero’s name, but it stands on its own as an inventive and charming period fantasy. Playful and imaginative, Baron Trump’s Marvellous Underground Journey is an entertaining relic of nineteenth-century children’s adventure writing.
