Journal Entry 1 by Shylock from Skipton, North Yorkshire United Kingdom on Saturday, January 24, 2004
I'm biased because I live in the Yorkshire Dales. This is the fond & gentle reminiscences of a school inspector in North Yorkshire. The landscape works its usual magic on him as he drives 'up hill & down dale' to reach remote schools, but the book's main strength is in the amusing encounters with young children in the classrooms, and I wish he'd described more of them. You won't get much out of this book though if you don't know what a broad Yorkshire accent sounds like, as the speech is written as it sounds & jumps wonderfully off the page.

Lent it to a friend who then lent it to her father in Scarborough, so it's taking a holiday on the east coast for a while.

Shylock, your generosity is too much!

Picked up at Forresters during last evening's meetup. Unfortunately so little time so I won't be able to read it.
