Pomona's Travels
'Pomona's Travels' Summary
Pomona, the unforgettable character from 'Rudder Grange,' embarks on a hilarious journey to England and Scotland. This time, she faces a whirlwind of new experiences, from encounters with wild pigs and the intricacies of haymaking to navigating grand hotels and the quirks of Pullman cars. Her unfiltered observations and unique approach to everything from social etiquette to hunting provide endless amusement. Pomona's adventures involve unexpected romances, a brush with a Duchess, and the absurdity of a knighting ceremony. Her journey is a testament to her infectious spirit and ability to find humor in the most unexpected places.Book Details
