Such as I am, sir no great subject for a boaster, I admit- you see in me a product of my time, sir, and of very worthy parents, I assure you. EZEK.IEL JOT. AS a very small lad, at home in Tarn Regis, I had but one close chum, George Stairs, and he went off with his father to Canada, while I was away for my first term at Elstree school. Then came Rugby, where I had several friends, but the chief of them was Leslie Wheeler. Just why we should have been close friends I cannot say, but I fancy it was mainly because Leslie was such a handsome fellow, and always seemed to cut a good figure in everything he did; while I, on the other hand, excelled in nothing, and was not brilliant even in the expression of my discontent, which was tolerably comprehensive. Withal, in other matters beside discontent, I was a good deal of an extremist, and by no means lacking in enthusiasm. My father, too, was an enthusiast in his quiet way.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an autobiography of an early 20th-century British journalist, beginning with the author's university years at the tail end of the Victorian era and ending at the outset of World War I. Exploring the social and political milieu of the time through the lens of his own experiences, the author paints a vivid picture of his society's preoccupations. His personal and professional life introduces the reader to the complexities of the British class system, particularly the struggle to maintain standards of living in the face of economic and technological change. His political reflections include his participation in suffrage activism and his opposition to imperialism. The author further examines the growing gap between rich and poor, increasing unemployment, inadequate housing and the societal disregard for human life that was symbolized by the Boer War. This book provides a rich tapestry of life in the United Kingdom at the turn of the century as well as a deep dive into the class and political divisions of the time.
