The Real Diary of a Real Boy is a memoir written by Henry A. Shute, which was originally published in 1902. The book is a personal account of the author's childhood experiences growing up in a small town in New Hampshire during the late 19th century. The diary entries provide a detailed and intimate portrait of the daily life of a young boy, including his thoughts, feelings, and interactions with family and friends. The book covers a wide range of topics, from school and sports to holidays and family events. Shute's writing style is simple and straightforward, which makes the book easy to read and understand. The Real Diary of a Real Boy is a charming and nostalgic look back at a bygone era, and it offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of an ordinary American boy at the turn of the century.1902. Take a journey into America's past through this classic fictional diary of a young boy living near Exeter, New Hampshire in the 1860s. Soda water at the corner store, fighting in the schoolyard, making hayseed cigars, getting lickings from his father and other everyday experiences create a unique window into the realities of life in 19th century New England. Written with the unguarded honesty of an eleven-year-old, this fiction rings with a truth that only children and master storytellers can craft. The book propelled Henry Shute to national prominence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
