The Adventures of Mr. Verdant Green
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Adventures of Mr. Verdant Green is a novel by Cuthbert M. Bede, a pseudonym of Edward Bradley (1827–1889). It covers the exploits of Mr Verdant Green as an undergraduate freshman at Oxford University. The exact title for different editions of the book varies. Mr Verdant Green: Adventures of an Oxford Freshman is a variant, for example. The full book was originally published in three parts during the 1850s.
The book includes some classic line-drawing illustrations. The poet John Betjeman reused these in his 1938 book on the university, An Oxford University Chest.
