| 520 | _a"The Pirate's Pocket Book" by Dion Clayton Calthrop is a whimsical children's story written in the early 20th century. This lighthearted tale revolves around the adventures of a notorious pirate named Captain Thomas Tomb and his young companion, Dingy David. The narrative is characterized by its playful language and imaginative settings, suggesting themes of adventure, friendship, and the hilarity of pirate life. In the story, Captain Tomb lives a life of flamboyant mischief aboard his ship, the "Inky Murk", alongside Dingy David. The tale unfolds as Tomb captures David while he is stealing flowers, ultimately inducting him into pirate life. As their escapades continue, they plunder various imaginary locales, but eventually retire to Tomb's tranquil island home, leading to a comedic turn involving the search for a charwoman to tidy their dusty abode. The narrative humorously reveals Tomb's unexpected familial ties, including his long-lost daughter, Ermyntrude, and the miraculous connections among their lives, creating an uplifting and entertaining conclusion to their absurd adventures.
