Your Amiable Uncle: Letters to His Nephews

These letters were written by Booth Tarkington in 1903-1904 during his first trip abroad with he parents and his wife. They were addressed to his three nephews, John, Donald and Booth Jameson. Many years later Penrod was dedicated by a grateful uncle to the same three boys, the gratitude being due to the fact that individually and collectively they had furnished so much copy to the avuncular pen.
