About the book
Two boys, young men really, one a Prince and heir to the throne of England, and one a poor lad without a shilling, discover one another and their remarkable resemblance. The Prince proposes they exchange places for a brief time, and so we begin a rousing adventure where a sheltered Prince learns that life, often fraught with dangerous turns, is not what he had thought, while a kindly uneducated Pauper nervously prepares to rule a country in the wake of the King's passing.
