The book, which was writtern when Ransome was 22 years old, has finally been published in Japanese translation.
It is written with much humour, vigour and modest sentiment, as sometimes shown in the Autobiography.
I hope this book will attract more people who have never enjoyed his work (unfortunately) as a child -- it is also very good as a guidebook to London in the beginning of 20th Century.
