The Adventures of Philip The Adventures of Philip on his Way Through the World: Shewing Who Robbed Him, Who Helped Him, and Who Passed Him By (1861–62) is a novel by William Makepeace Thackeray. It was the last novel Thackeray completed, and harks back to several of his previous ones, involving as it does characters from "A Shabby Genteel Story" and being, like "The Newcomes", narrated by the title character of his "Pendennis". In recent years it has not found as much favour from either readers or critics as Thackeray's early novels.
