It is significant that, once upon a time, the books of George Alfred Henty could be found on the shelves of many great leaders, including Nobel Prize winners, authors, historians, prime ministers, generals, admirals, and preachers. Thanks to the work of Preston Speed Publications, Mr. Henty's volumes are once again available for a new generation of leaders. In recent years, the fabulous heroes and histories of G.A. Henty have become best-sellers in America's home school movement as many parents have come to realize both the academic and literary benefits of his writings. The Boy's Guide to the Historical Adventures of G.A. Henty is a must-have for any collector of the Henty classics. It offers two unique features. First, it gives the history of the life of G.A. Henty and the reason why Christian boys should read his adventure stories. Second, it charts Henty's works of historical fiction chronologically and provides both a plot summary and an historical overview of over seventy of his classic tales.
