Summary: Funny! Classical! Innocent and endearing humour!
Review: Bones has the knack of getting into trouble - and exasperating his chief, captain Hamilton! These are witty, humourous adventures of the innocent Lieutenant Tibbets, "Bones" as he is known to his colleagues, in British West Africa as lieutenant of the Houssas.Set in colonial times, these are stories that bring up a vivid imagery of the child-like natives and their imperialist bosses: co-existing in an uncomfortable state of uneasy peace... I recommend this book for its pure, unadulterated and innocent fun.
