Summary "Works of George W. Peck" by George W. Peck is a collection of humorous writings encompassing the "Bad Boy" series and other short stories, likely written during the late 19th century. The anthology showcases the misadventures of a mischievous boy and his interactions with his father, while also touching on various aspects of life and society during that time. The work aims to entertain readers with its comedic perspective on childhood antics and family dynamics. The content mainly revolves around the character of Peck's "Bad Boy," who is known for his mischievous spirit and penchant for trouble. Each chapter delivers a series of comedic episodes, including practical jokes, family conflicts, and humorous observations about society. The stories explore the relationship between the Bad Boy and his father, often highlighting the contrast between the father's earnest but beleaguered attempts at parenting and the son's relentless mischief. From Fourth of July escapades to misadventures abroad, the narrative captures the essence of boyhood in a light-hearted manner, providing readers with both laughter and a nostalgic look at the complexities of growing up.
