Publisher's Synopsis

""Mr. Tolman"" is a novel written by Frank R. Stockton. The story follows the life of a man named Mr. Tolman, who is a middle-aged bachelor living in a small town. He is known for his kind and gentle nature, and is well-respected by the townspeople. However, Mr. Tolman is also known for his eccentric behavior, which often leads to misunderstandings and confusion. The novel explores Mr. Tolman's relationships with the people in his town, including his close friend, Dr. Hemingway, and a young woman named Miss Babbitt, who he takes under his wing. As the story progresses, Mr. Tolman becomes embroiled in a series of humorous and sometimes bizarre situations, including a mistaken identity, a case of mistaken love, and an unexpected inheritance. Throughout the novel, Stockton uses humor and wit to poke fun at the conventions of small town life, while also celebrating the kindness and generosity of its inhabitants. ""Mr. Tolman"" is a charming and lighthearted tale that will appeal to readers of all ages.THIS 38 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Stories Of Frank R. Stockton V4, by Frank R. Stockton.
