Download or read book The Retirement of A.J. Wentworth written by H.F. Ellis and published by Prelude Books. This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second of the humorous fictional memoirs of a hapless schoolmaster. A. J. Wentworth, formerly teacher of mathematics at Burgrove prep school for boys, now passes his retirement years in a typically English rural village where somehow he seems unable to stay out of trouble. Wentworth lurches from mishap to misunderstanding, whether at the Conservative Association or the local dramatic society, the cricket club dinner or the vicarage Christmas Party. His pièce de résistance proves to be the escorting of two schoolboys on a trip to Switzerland that unexpectedly detours into Italy. A comic study in blinkered English manners, the Wentworth Papers will delight fans of P.G. Wodehouse or Grossmiths' Mr Pooter. First introduced to readers in the pages of Punch magazine, it was later dramatized for both BBC Radio and ITV drama. Editorial reviews: ‘A splendid comic hero ... cannot fail to engage the sympathy of everyone who has ever sat in a classroom either as master or pupil ... Few books have made me laugh out loud quite so often.’ Evening Standard ‘I was often helpless with laughter. Not a book to be read in public.’ The Oldie ‘A truly comic invention.’ The Guardian ‘Masterly caricature.’ Times Literary Supplement ‘Wentworth turns out to be the hero of a work certain to be pigeon-holed as a minor classic by which people usually mean a classic more readable than the major kind ... a man Mr Pooter would regard with awe but nevertheless recognise as a brother.’ Spectator ‘A book of such hilarious nature that I had to give up reading it in public.’ New Statesman ‘One of the funniest books ever.’ Sunday Express

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic fictional memoirs of a hapless schoolmaster. There is chalk in his fingernails and paper darts fill the air as A.J. Wentworth, mathematics master at Burgrove Preparatory School, unwittingly opens the doors that lead not to knowledge but to chaos and confusion. In his collected papers he sets out the truth about the fishing incident in the boot room, the real story about the theft of the headmaster’s potted plant, and even the answer to the sensitive question of whether or not Mr Wentworth was trying to have carnal knowledge of matron on that one, memorable occasion. A comic study in blinkered English manners, the Wentworth Papers will delight fans of P.G. Wodehouse or Grossmiths' Mr Pooter. First introduced to readers in the pages of Punch magazine, it was later dramatized for both BBC Radio and ITV drama.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A. J. Wentworth is a man with the unshakable conviction in the correctness of his own actions. Thus, when the book he threw across the classroom stunned Hopgood II in error (Wentworth was aiming at Mason), the assistant headmaster of Burgrove prep school decided to make his notes available to the public. Truth about the insolence of Mason, the affair of the Headmaster's fern, and other revelations throw much needed light on the incident of the heaved algebra book.

Download or read book Dictionary of Twentieth-Century British Cartoonists and Caricaturists written by Mark Bryant and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-08 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British cartoonists and caricaturists are renowned worldwide. Originally published in 2000, this indispensable handbook offers a unique ‘who’s who’ of all the major artists working in Britain in the twentieth century and contains nearly 500 entries. Extensively illustrated, the book provides information on the work of artists such as Steve Bell, Gerald Scarfe, Posy Simmonds, Ronald Searle, Trog, mac and Larry as well as such past masters as David Low, Vicky, H. M. Bateman, Illingworth, Heath Robinson and more. The dictionary concentrates primarily on political cartoonists, caricaturists and joke or ‘gag’ cartoonists, actively working for the main Fleet Street national dailies and weeklies from 1900 to 1995. Each entry is cross-referenced and provides a concise biographical outline with an account of the artist’s style, influences and preferred medium. Where relevant the entry includes suggestions for further reading and notes solo exhibitions, books illustrated and works held in public collections. The Dictionary of Twentieth-Century British Cartoonists and Caricaturists offers an insight into the lives of satirical artists working during a century that provoked cartoonists and caricaturists to a pitch of comic and artistic invention that has rarely been matched.
