As expected, this was an easy read that took no time at all. I enjoyed reading these stories again, being reminded that William was not a bad person. He almost always wanted to do the right thing and to help people, but was a bit misguided and, as a result of a combination of naivety and bad luck, tended to cause mayhem.
I suppose the book is now anachronistic - the world has moved on a lot since it was first published. The core of the stories is still good, as human nature has not changed at all. But the context is now very unfamiliar.
