Yes, as you say, it's a "fun read". I read it because I found it mentioned in a diary of a worker on the Australian Overland Telegraph in 1872, and I was curious what kind of stuff the workers were reading. It's certainly not Great Literature, but it's a well-structured, rollicking yarn with plenty of quirky and colourful characters.
