      About This Book

      The Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Cain Mutiny delivers an "enormously entertaining" portrait of "a Bronx Tom Sawyer" (San Francisco Chronicle).
      City Boy is Herman Wouk's sharp and moving novel of boyhood. A hilarious and often touching tale of an urban kid's adventures and misadventures on the street, in school, in the countryside, always in pursuit of Lucille, a heartless redhead personifying all the girls who torment and fascinate pubescent lads of eleven.
