The Man From Blankley's: And Other Sketches is a collection of humorous short stories written by British author F. Anstey and originally published in 1901. The book features a variety of characters and situations, from a man who accidentally orders a crate of live frogs to a group of women who form a secret society to combat the tyranny of men. The titular story follows a man who, after being mistaken for a wealthy customer at a department store, is treated like royalty and decides to play along with the charade. Anstey's wit and satire are on full display in these tales, which offer a glimpse into turn-of-the-century British society and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
