George Ponderevo is a dreamer, dreaming of inventing his own flying machine. His Uncle Teddy is a dreamer too, dreaming of big money.

George has a chequered career. Too bright for any school or job that his Victorian lower-middle class upbringing can offer, he throws in his lot with his uncle - failed pharmacist and successful inventor of an utterly valueless patent medicine. But when "Tono-Bungay" sells like hot cakes and the money begins to pour in, George finds he really can build his aeroplane, while Uncle Teddy buys and builds his dream houses and climbs the social ladder. Houses like palaces, riches beyond avarice - the fall cannot be far away.

This is the only edition available, with introduction, selected criticism, text summary and chronology of Well's life and times.
