Thomas Jefferson Brown James Oliver Curwood

Publisher Marketing: Though a bit out of character for James Curwood, the light-hearted story of Thomas Jefferson Brown is delightful nonetheless. A relatively short, tongue-in-cheek tale that can be read in one sitting, the story is that of likeable, well-built man of royal lineage, a huge heart, and a bad case of wanderlust. With the ability to play seven instruments without an instrument, to wrap the hearts of children around him in an instant, and to do the work of three men, "Tom" was a likeable fellow indead. He just didn't like to stay in one place or in one job very long, and he never revealed his royal connections--that is, until he met Isobel. Something about her brought out the man and hero in him in ways that had never surfaced before, and when doom seemed his certain lot, fate stepped in to give him a helping hand. All-in-all a wonderful story of love, danger, and reckless abandon--though certainly not in that order.
