Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Admirable Tinker" by Edgar Jepson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on Sir Tancred Beauleigh, who embarks on a quest to find his missing son, Hildebrand Anne, affectionately called Tinker. This narrative promises a blend of adventure, family drama, and social commentary as it explores the challenges faced by the main character in his pursuit of both personal and familial fulfillment. At the start of the book, we meet Sir Tancred at a hotel in London, where he has just reunited with a former acquaintance, Lord Crosland. Sir Tancred shares his melancholic tale of love, loss, and the search for his son, who has been lost to him due to the manipulations of his stepmother. The opening chapters reveal his determination to reclaim his son, who he suspects has been hidden away by those who wish to keep him from his father. As the story unfolds, the reader is introduced to Tinker, who undergoes a journey from neglect to eventual rescue, setting the stage for further developments in the father-son relationship and adventure.
