Riassunto

The Schoolmaster, written in 1902 when AC Benson was a housemaster at Eton, teaching classics, is a book of plainly-spoken advice and stands in stark contrast to many of the jargon-ridden teaching manuals of the 21st century.

Recensione

From Wellington to Orwell, Shelley to Cameron the names of distinguished Old Etonians form a rich roll call of British national life. Yet only one man has his name recorded on a commemorative blue plaque on a school building. That man is A C Benson. --Tony Little, Head Master, Eton College

..please, can we have this man as the Minister for Education, and can we have him now. --Jonathan Smith, author of The Following Game
