The Cheerful Blackguard is a novel written by Roger S. Pocock and first published in 1915. The story follows the adventures of a charming and roguish young man named Peter Blundell, who is known as the ''Cheerful Blackguard'' due to his penchant for mischief and his ability to always land on his feet. Peter is a skilled horseman and a bit of a ladies’ man, but his life takes a turn when he becomes embroiled in a plot to steal a valuable racehorse. Along the way, he falls in love with a beautiful young woman named Mary, who is the daughter of the horse’s owner. As Peter tries to navigate the dangerous world of horse racing and keep his true intentions hidden, he finds himself facing off against a ruthless gang of criminals who will stop at nothing to get what they want. With the help of his wits and his friends, Peter must outsmart his enemies and prove that he is more than just a cheerful blackguard. The Cheerful Blackguard is a thrilling tale of adventure, romance, and intrigue set against the backdrop of the exciting world of horse racing. Pocock’s vivid writing brings the characters and the setting to life, making this a must-read for fans of historical fiction and classic adventure stories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
