Description

Bertie Bailey, a plucky but unruly schoolboy, runs away in search of a life of adventure. He sets out for London but is robbed of all of his money and reaches the capital tired, penniless, and hungry. He is befriended by Freddy, a young thief, who takes him to a thieves’ den. When Bertie accidentally hears the thieves’ secrets, they take him to Brittany and abandon him there. Bertie makes a living for himself in the wilderness but finally collapses. He is found by the roadside and saved.
