Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: No dustjacket. First edition. Quite scarce in original edition. Tyneside is a built-up area across the banks of the River Tyne in northern England. A Jubilee School was built in 1810 to celebrate the 50th year of the reign of George III. With discussion on the rascal many, of a town where no town should be, the Jubilee School in 1839, teaching the teachers, enter the politician, in retirement, and much more. Thomas Haswell (1807?1889) was a Tynemouth-born schoolmaster, head master, songwriter and composer. In 1838, the position of headmaster of his old school, the Royal Jubilee, fell vacant and he took the position. The school had only approximately 40 pupils and was in a dilapidated condition, with a poor and outdated system of teaching. As fast as he dared and finances allowed, he changed all this, introducing many academic subjects such as music, drawing and science whilst not forgetting the sports and swimming (at the council baths ? and in the sea). A great respect grew between him and his pupils.
