Gervase Phinn is a school inspector in Yorkshire, including the Yorkshire Dales. He chronicles in this book his appointment to the local school inspectorate and then stories of various visits made, with a background cast of brilliant characters such as the chief school inspector, the dazzling secretary who is always getting things wrong, the local aristrocrat who is head of the school governors, potty schoolteachers who should have gone out to grass years ago, and divine children with superb Yorkshire humour.

RELEASE NOTES:

Taking this to the Coventry meet-up. If not picked up from the table I'll leave it on the OBCZ shelf.

"The James Herriot of schools..."
Quite an accurate quote and a nice book to read in an evening.
Being released today at Liquid, Coventry.

Caught at Coventry meetup yesterday. This is one of a boxed set of three.

Reserved for Raeliz64.

I never did pass this on to Raeliz64, and I no longer have it. As I'm tidying my bookshelf, I'll mark it as travelling (together with its two companions in the boxed set).
