Tom Brownâs Schooldays is a novel by Thomas Hughes first published in 1857. The story is set at Rugby School, a public school for boys, in the 1830s. Hughes attended Rugby School from 1834 to 1842.
The novel was originally published as being âby an Old Boy of Rugbyâ, and much of it is based on the authorâs experiences. Tom Brown is largely based on the authorâs brother, George Hughes; and George Arthur, another of the bookâs main characters, is based on Arthur Penrhyn Stanley. The fictional Tomâs life also resembles the authorâs in that the culminating event of his school career was a cricket match.
Tom Brown was tremendously influential on the genre of British school novels, which began in the 19th century, and is one of the few still in print. A sequel, Tom Brown at Oxford, was published in 1861 but is not as well known.
