Description
John and Antonia return in this sequel to We Met Our Cousins, first published in 1939.
This time, the Scottish cousins are coming to London to spend Christmas. The wild cousins are certainly not what John and Antonia’s friends and relations expect, particularly when they get up at dawn to fight a duel in the Square gardens and catch a burglar. Then they spot a pathetic pony pulling a rag-and-bone cart, and buy her.
The problem with living in smart central London is a lack of anywhere to keep a pony, but the children are undaunted. Can they keep her hidden in the summer house in the Square gardens without anyone spotting?
London Pride was published when hunting was still legal, and there is a hunting scene at the end of the book.
