Project Gutenberg 2004-12-01 Public domain in the USA. 135 Farnol, Jeffery 1878 1952 Farnol, John Jeffery Farnol, Jeffrey Farnol, Jack Peregrine's Progress Produced by Yvonne Dailey, Charles Franks and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Peregrine's Progress" by Jeffery Farnol is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the main character, Peregrine Vereker, who is depicted as a young man grappling with his identity as he seeks to explore life beyond the sheltered upbringing he has received from his guardians, particularly his Aunt Julia, who has raised him with stringent gentility. As he embarks on a quest for manhood, the narrative hints at Peregrine's journey to discover adventure, love, and personal growth in a world brimming with characters both quirky and complex. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Peregrine’s rather amusing and dysfunctional family, led by his overprotective Aunt Julia and two eccentric uncles. The interactions between these characters are marked by playful banter and comedic tension, setting the tone for Peregrine’s subsequent quest for independence. Frustrated by being labeled "ladylike," he resolves to venture out into the world, aiming to find himself and perhaps a greater purpose, while also expressing a sincere desire for his aunt's happiness. This opening portion establishes a richly woven backdrop filled with humor and sentiment as Peregrine prepares to navigate a society full of eccentric characters, including an extraordinary tinker, and contemplate the important life lessons ahead.
