Tom Brown's Schooldays

Novel by Thomas Hughes, published in 1857. Through the experiences of Tom Brown and his friends East and Arthur, and the school bully Flashman, Hughes recalls his time at Rugby School under Thomas Arnold, and presents a boarding school ethos combining Christian principles, patriotism, physical courage, and school loyalty. The book established a new tradition of school stories for boys.

It had a less successful sequel, Tom Brown at Oxford (1861).
