| Summary | "Blackie & Son's Books for Young People, Catalogue - 1891" by Blackie & Son is a catalogue showcasing a collection of children's literature written in the late 19th century. This publication features a variety of adventure stories aimed primarily at young readers, with many titles authored by G. A. Henty, who is notable for his historical narratives tailored for boys. The catalogue encapsulates the spirit of exploration and moral lessons consistent with the literature of the period, making it a vivid representation of children's publishing during that era. The opening of the catalogue introduces several exciting works by G. A. Henty, highlighting titles such as "St. Bartholomew's Eve" and "Through the Sikh War." Each entry provides a brief synopsis, emphasizing the protagonists—often young English boys—who embark on daring adventures amidst historical backdrops, such as the Huguenot Wars and the Sikh Wars in India. For instance, in "St. Bartholomew's Eve," the hero, Philip Fletcher, faces peril during the infamous massacre in Paris, showcasing themes of bravery and resilience. The catalogue not only outlines the stories but also serves as a recommendation of literature aimed at fostering a sense of courage and adventure in young readers.
