The Slowcoach is a charming and heartwarming tale written by E. V. Lucas. The story follows the adventures of a slow and steady horse-drawn carriage named Slowcoach, who travels through the English countryside, carrying passengers and delivering goods. Slowcoach is a beloved member of the community, known for his reliability and gentle nature. The book is filled with delightful anecdotes and humorous observations about life in the early 20th century. Through Slowcoach's travels, the reader is transported to a simpler time, where the pace of life was slower, and the beauty of the English countryside was celebrated. This book is a perfect read for anyone who loves animals, history, or a good old-fashioned story about the joys of life.1913. Illustrated. The book begins: Once upon a time there was a nice family. Its name was Avory, and it lived in an old house in Chiswick, where the Thames is so sad on grey days and so gay on sunny ones. Mr.-or rather Captain-Avory was dead; he had been wounded at Spion Kop, and died a few years after. Mrs. Avory was thirty-five, and she had four children. The eldest was Janet, aged fourteen, and the youngest was Gregory Bruce, aged seven. Between these came Robert Oliver, who was thirteen, and Hester, who was nine. They were all very fond of each other, and they rarely quarreled.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
