Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Everyday Life in Our Public Schools, Sketched by Head-Scholars of Eton, Winchester, Westminster, Shrewsbury, Harrow, Rugby, Chaterhouse: To Which Is Added a Brief Notice of St. Paul´s and Merchant Taylors´ Schools, and Christ´s Hospital, With a Glossary of Some Words in Common Use in Those Schools The story of those great educational institutions which have exercised so marked and admirable an influence on English home life has always had an exceptional interest for old and young. There are few parents, indeed, who would not desire to educate their sons at a Public School; and there are few lads of any spirit who would not hail with satisfaction the prospect of entering one. This book will, I venture to hope, be of some service and furnish some entertainment to both - to the parent in reviving a period of life which has a charm for most of us; to the boy in relating plainly and circumstantially all that he most wishes to know when, bidding home good-bye for the first time, he plunges into the rougher ways of school life. And, best of all, what is herein related comes from public-school boys themselves. The fresh and interesting sketches of the "School Life" of to-day are written by those whose experience in each school is sufficiently recent, to entitle them to the respect and, I trust I may add, the confidence of every school-boy. The list of contributors will be found to verify this assertion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
