Oswald Bastable and Others

&quote;Oswald Bastable and Others&quote; is a trilogy of children's novels by Edith Nesbit (1858 - 1924), including &quote;The Story of the Treasure Seekers&quote; (1899), &quote;The Wouldbegoods&quote; (1901), and &quote;The New Treasure Seekers&quote; (1904). Nesbit was a prolific and popular writer of children's literature, publishing more than 60 such books under the name E. Nesbit. She was also a political activist and co-founded the Fabian Society, which had a significant influence on the Labour Party and British politics in general. This charming children's trilogy would make for perfect bedtime reading and constitutes a must-have for fans and collectors of Nesbit's wonderful work. Other notable works by this author include: &quote;The Prophet's Mantle&quote; (1885), &quote;Something Wrong&quote; (1886), and &quote;The Marden Mystery&quote; (1896). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
