About this book
F. Anstey, the pen name of Thomas Anstey Guthrie and author of Vice Versa, collected these comic stories, which first ran in magazines including Macmillan's, Longman's, The Cornhill and Aunt Judy's. The title story begins at the Sandown Park races on a rainy July day, where the narrator notices a timid stranger dressed in an aggressively horsey style and keeps him in view.
Among the other pieces are The Good Little Girl, Tommy's Hero, A Canine Ishmael, Marjory and Don, the story of a greedy dog. Smith, Elder and Co. issued this second edition in 1892.
