Return, unabridged, to the boy who refused to grow up. This edition reproduces the complete original text of J. M. Barrie's 1911 novel 'Peter and Wendy'—the full prose telling of Peter Pan's adventures, from the nursery window at No. 14 to the mermaids' lagoon, the Lost Boys' underground home, and Captain Hook's final reckoning aboard the Jolly Roger. Every chapter is exactly as Barrie wrote it, with his wry, tender narrator intact. A new introduction explores the story's origins in Barrie's life, the London stage, and Edwardian childhood, while reader's notes illuminate the book's language, themes, and historical context for modern audiences. Whether you are revisiting a beloved classic or meeting Tinker Bell, the Darling children, and Neverland for the first time, this is the edition to treasure. Part of The Founding Texts Library.
