These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside The Flying Boat - A Story of Adventure and Misadventure: Look inside the book: Ting had occupied a special position in his father's household, and he remembered vaguely that he had been quite fond of Tingy in his early years; but he was at a loss to understand why the Chinaman appeared to have constituted himself his moral guardian--why he sent for copies of all his school reports, and wrote him such exceedingly dull comments on them. ...The narrow dirty streets, half the width of an ordinary room, paved with stone slabs, and crowded all day long with people chaffering in shrill voices, and picking their way through immense heaps of fish, pork and vegetables; the low open shops, displaying silks and porcelain, ornaments and bronzes, and a thousand other varieties of merchandise more or less costly; the numerous tea-shops and dining-rooms, more frequent even than public-houses in the east end of London; the immense variety of smells, in which Shanghai surely outrivals Cologne: all these features of the native city soon ceased to have the charm of novelty; and the clean, well-paved, well-tended quarters of the European community differed little in general characteristics from the towns of the west. About Herbert Strang, the Author: The pseudonym was also employed for several series of anthologies, works 'edited by Herbert Strang' that included The Big Book of School Stories for Boys and The Oxford Annual for Scouts. ...Very little is known about the series of books titled Little Stories of Great Lives that were edited by Herbert Strang and written for young children.
