This first volume of 'The Select Works' presents three of Tobias Smollett’s most enduring novels: 'The Adventures of Roderick Random,' 'The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle,' and 'The Life and Adventures of Sir Launcelot Greaves.' Smollett, a master of the picaresque, fills these pages with memorable characters, witty dialogue, and satirical observations on 18th-century British society. 'The Adventures of Roderick Random' follows a young Scotsman’s journey through hardship and adventure as he seeks his fortune. 'The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle' showcases Smollett’s talent for comedic exaggeration and social critique, while 'The Life and Adventures of Sir Launcelot Greaves' offers a unique blend of chivalric romance and social commentary.
