Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book was written in the very early days of World War 1 and describes the author's time in a great english public school. It describes the era, the patriotism, the mores of the upper classes of England in the beginning of the 20th century. In many ways, it compares with the "Tom Brown's Schooldays" but describes the england of 80 years later. A huge change. A very interesting book indeed !
It's also interesting that the author is the brother of Evelyn Waugh, who wrote "Brideshead Revisited". It's hard to imagine books that are so different !

And if the modern reader after turning a page or two finds his attention held and wants to go on reading it will mean that this book has become at last what in fact it was always meant to be—a realistic but romantic story of healthy adolescence set against the background of an average English Public School.
