About This Book

A carefree young heir unexpectedly inherits the responsibility to run his father’s store under a trusteeship and must exchange idleness for practical effort. The narrative follows his fumbling attempts to learn the ropes of business, the comic obstacles and schemes that test his resolve, and the romantic tension with Agnes, whose approval hinges on his proving himself, ultimately tracing a path of gradual maturation and practical self-reliance.
