Brewster's Millions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780573606274)

This interesting young man, Monty Brewster, begins poor and suddenly wakes to find himself heir to $1,000,000. The first news hardly becomes cold when Monty is called upon by a representative of a law firm with the information that a wealthy uncle whom he had forgotten had died and left his fortune to Monty but with the provision that every cent of the million left by the old man be spent in a year, legitimately, with receipts acceptable to the administrator to show for it. Monty accepts and gets busy spending that million. One of the most novel plots ever conceived.
