This is another installment in the John Bull series by Leon Paul Blouet (1847-1903), a French author and journalist who wrote under the pen name, Max O'Rell. In the series, O'Rell writes through the character of John Bull (and in this book, the English schoolboy, John Bull, Jr.) to illustrate his real-life observations of British culture and politics through humorous anecdotes. O'Rell was born in Avranches, a small town near the border of Brittany, France but moved to London amid the instability of the Franco-Prussian War. Throughout his life and career, he considered himself to be a mediator between France, England, and the United States. Among the many subjects addressed in John Bull, Jr., O'Rell writes about the stereotypes of English and French people, life and customs of English schoolboys and English school culture, language barriers between English and French cultures, the French language, and origins of Anglomania and Anglophobia.…
