Along the way, he learns important lessons about responsibility, perseverance, and the importance of helping others.Post Haste is a classic adventure story that is suitable for readers of all ages. It is a thrilling tale of courage, determination, and perseverance that will keep readers on the edge of their seats from beginning to end.So it ever is with mankind. People make mistakes, or are guilty of carelessness, and straightway they lay the blame -- not only without but against reason -- on broader shoulders than their own. That wonderful and almost perfect British Post-Office delivers quickly, safely, and in good condition above fourteen hundred millions of letters etc. in the year, but some half-dozen letters, addressed to Messrs. Blurt and Co., have gone a-missing, -- therefore the Post-Office is to blame!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
