High spirited Barry Briggs is always game for adventure, and misadventure, too! Somehow, whenever trouble is brewing, he has a natural talent for landing himself smack in the middle.

Barry is kept busy catching crooks, meeting local dignitaries, confound his odious aunts best laid plans, and pursuing his secret ambitions, to own a bicycle, and to become a first rate cricketer.

Unfortunately, between escapades, there is little room left for his studies, and with vital exams looming up ahead, Barrys future as a mighty grammar school boy looks doomed.

This lively story is the first in a series of books about Barry by A. Stephen Tring.
