Handy Andy V2 is a classic novel written by Samuel Lover, first published in 1842. The book is a humorous and entertaining story that follows the life of a young Irishman named Andy Rooney, who is known for his handyman skills and his ability to fix just about anything. In this second volume of the series, Andy continues to go on various adventures and misadventures, often finding himself in hilarious situations. He also falls in love with a young woman named Biddy, and the two navigate their relationship amidst the chaos of Andy’s life. Handy Andy V2 is a lighthearted and enjoyable read that offers a glimpse into Irish culture and the everyday life of the working class in the 19th century. The book is filled with witty dialogue, colorful characters, and humorous anecdotes that will keep readers entertained from start to finish.''’An honest man would make no objection to be sarched,’ said the Squire; ’and I insist on it,’ says he, laying hold o’ the bag, and Tom purtending to fight all the time; but, my jewel! before two minutes, they shook the cat out o’ the bag, sure enough, and off she went with her tail as big as a sweeping brush, and the Squire, with a thundering view halloo after her, clapt the dogs at her heels, and away they went for the bare life. Never was there seen such running as that day--the cat made for a shaking bog, the loneliest place in the whole country, and there the riders were all thrown out, barrin’ the huntsman, who had a web-footed horse on purpose for soft places; and the priest, whose horse could go anywhere by reason of the priest’s blessing; and, sure enough, the huntsman and his riverence stuck to the hunt like wax; and just as the cat got on the border of the bog, they saw her give a twist as the foremost dog closed with her, for he gave her a nip in the flank.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
