The Adventures of Roderick Random

Review:

A merry romp through 18th century England, France, South America, and the high seas.

Good read, well written, solid prose.

Needed an editor, but the novel was a new art from and readers craved this kind of long-winded adventure yarn.

Like Tom Jones, but with more sailing and battles.

This book made me want to: quaff a noggin of SAS
