In Gulliver’s Travels Captain Gulliver relates how the people of Lilliput were very tiny, hardly reaching his ankles, and how they were evenly divided into two political parties – the High Heels who strongly argued a soft boiled egg must always be opened on the pointed end – and the Low Heels who argued just as firmly that it should only be opened on the round end – and he told in exciting detail of the intrigues and infighting that ensued from this major political difference.
Now, in this book, based on a newly discovered manuscript in Gulliver’s own hand, we’re treated to an equally exciting eyewitness account of the little people’s quaint economy.
