Whimpering in the Rhododendrons
The Splendors and Miseries of the English Prep School
Description:... The English preparatory school is in the process of being transformed out of all recognition. Gone or a least fast disappearing are the days of congealed porridge, doses of Agarol, petit beurre bsicuits, evening chapel, bullying and eccentric masters and matrons. Using the varied experiences recalled by former prep. school boys, Arthur Marshall conducts us through an imaginary day in one such school. He does so with nostalgia and a keen sense of humour.
