Book Description
Boy's Own Annuals such as this one offer a rich seam of nostalgia in terms of attractive presentation, informative educational articles, stirring stories, humorous anecdotes, vibrant drawings from well known artists of the day and occasional photographs - and indeed everything that might appeal to the knowledge & senses of children at that time. In this case, appearing as it did just a few years after the First World War & the ensuing influenza pandemic it held out prospects for a brighter future for children as well as adults.
