Produktbeschreibung

Ingersoll Lockwood's "Travels and Adventures of Little Baron Trump and His Wonderful Dog Bulger" is a fantastical picaresque novel that follows the whimsical escapades of a precocious young aristocrat, Baron Trump, and his loyal canine companion, Bulger. Set against a richly imaginative landscape, the narrative is woven with elements of satire, adventure, and socio-political commentary, embodying the spirit of late 19th-century American literature. Lockwood crafts a narrative infused with a playful, almost mock-heroic tone, reflecting contemporary Victorian ideals while intertwining fantastical elements that challenge the boundaries of reality and civilizational norms. Ingersoll Lockwood was not only an author but also a lawyer and a political figure who traversed the intellectual currents of his time. His experiences in a post-Civil War America and his proclivity for social commentary informed his writing style, blending humor with an insightful critique of society. The creation of Baron Trump mirrors the zeitgeist of youthful optimism and exploration that characterized the American social imagination during the Gilded Age, making his work resonate with both children and adults alike. This enchanting tale is highly recommended for readers of all ages who are eager to embark on a journey through the realms of imagination and adventure. Lockwood'Äôs whimsical storytelling, combined with the charming camaraderie between Baron Trump and Bulger, invites readers to ponder deeper philosophical questions while delighting in the boundless possibilities of childhood wonder.

His father, Munson Lockwood, was a brigadier general in the New York State Militia, a lawyer, and also went on to hold the position of Warden at the famous Sing Sing prison. Both of Ingersoll's uncles, Ralph and Albert Lockwood, were also attorneys. Ingersoll was trained in the law, but before establishing a practice, he was appointed Consul to the Kingdom of Hanover by the Lincoln Administration - becoming the youngest member of a U.S. delegation. After his federal service, Ingersoll came back to New York City where he established a successful firm with his brother Henry. In addition to his legal work, Ingersoll began a writing career, which included political essays, fiction and poetry. His most successful works were his children's novels surrounding the character of Baron Trump.
