Reader's note

A wonderful 1955 edition of The Unwilling Adventurers by Veronica Westlake! When Mr. Strickland is suddenly left a fortune; his four motherless children are delighted. What luck! What wonderful luck! They can now have everything they want. But Mr. Strickland's plans are not the same as those of his children - who have become lazy and selfish without their mother's guidance - and their dreams are shattered as he tells them just what he thinks of them. Their only chance is to prove to him that they are worth something, and this they must do by passing certain tests. And so, unwillingly, the children set off for the first test: a long punting and camping trip up river - their first exciting adventure.
