Spidermonkey, I think that's one of the books that's not available to view.

The little snippet we can see of the first book is interesting - it suggests that Josiah Scudder Osbaldeston was a brother of Squire George Osbaldeston, about whom there's a lot of information around (including toni*'s link of earlier today - and see below):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Osbaldeston

NB the wikipedia entry suggests that "Squire" George only had sisters, so perhaps the supposed link was another piece of fiction!

I was wondering whether google books USA has different viewing rights (due to copyright restrictions) than google UK.  Why is it that the not available to view look like the most interesting?!  The last one on that page looks good aswell
