Publisher's Synopsis
Cheerfully dishonest and recklessly impulsive, young Frank Softly cuts a roguish figure in Regency London. This lighthearted, fast-paced tale, originally published in 1856, traces Frank's picaresque adventures across the British Isles to the shores of Australia. The loveable rascal's narrative recounts his attempts at forgery and counterfeiting, his romance with the daughter of the sinister Dr. Dulcifer, and his role in an unconventional inheritance scheme.
