Henty books can be very exciting and interesting

I just finished read “At Agincourt” and it being rather late now I shall probably refrain from writing anymore tonight. On Tuesday I will be leaving and going to Florida for a week or less or possibly more. I don’t know whether or not the hotel will have internet, or more to the point, internet for which there is no additional charge for. If I do have internet I will post, if I don’t I probably won’t. However I will try to get a lot of writing down and write posts to be posted later. And I’m not leaving for another five days or so. Today I pretty much just read and rode my bicycle and was lazy. Tomorrow I hope to spend more profitably however since I did read almost all of the historical parts of the Henty books I read today I sort of had a profitable day. But I doubt I’d get a very high grade on a test of the events of the books I just read unless they were about the charming young ladies who eventually married the Henty characters. For instant in “A March on London” it’s Agnes who is the younger sister of the Henty characters best friend and brother at arms and the daughter of a knight of not very great standing and he saves her life once and the Henty character marries Agnes after being knighted and given a splendid estate and in “At Agincourt” her name is Katarina and she is the daughter of an exiled Italian count and he saves her life(a common thing that Henty heroes do for their heroines, or at least it happens in a lot of the books) and she comes with a very rich dowry and lots of jewels and is considered to be very beautiful by the king of England who tells the Henty character that his taste is as good as skill in combat though not exactly in the words I mentioned.

So I had a fun day and hopefully soon I’ll find out what will happen to Princess Gwendolyn and her Cousin Mildred.
