William the Lawless was the last story collection in the William Books series. It was published posthumously in 1970 following the death of the author, Richmal Crompton, in 1969. It is difficult to obtain in good condition with a dustwrapper, quite high prices are asked and paid for this elusive title. There have been some soft cover reprints - one features the original jacket slightly cropped and even these reprints can be expensive.
In one story William helps an old man with his sorely neglected garden by presenting the OAP with ants 'borrowed' from his sister's rockery. In the same spirit of helpfulness, William and the Outlaws decide to give their form master a very special wedding present. But when William goes in search of the perfect gift, disaster can never be far behind... Archie also makes a re-entry and General Moult celebrates his 90th birthday, confessing he has never felt so happy, 'since the relief of Mafeking'.
