Publisher's Synopsis

Tobogganing On Crooked Runs is a book written by Harry Gibson and originally published in 1894. The book is a collection of humorous stories and anecdotes about the sport of tobogganing, which was popular in the late 19th century. Gibson, who was an avid tobogganer himself, shares his experiences and observations on the joys and pitfalls of the sport, as well as the eccentric characters he encountered on the slopes. The book also includes practical advice on how to build and maintain a toboggan, as well as tips on technique and safety. Throughout the book, Gibson's wit and humor shine through, making it an entertaining read for anyone interested in winter sports or 19th-century culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
