Excerpt from School Boy Life in England: An American View My first interest in the English schools was aroused by living for about a year and a half on intimate terms with the undergraduates of Oxford. The result of English school education, it appeared, was to make a man surprisingly solid in character and at the same time surprisingly simple and natural. The Oxonian has a firmer knowledge of himself and of the world of men than the Harvard man, and at the same time a greater measure of the spontaneity and exuberance natural to youth.

Excerpt from School-Boy Life in Merrie England: Pen-Pictures of the Great Public Schools of England, With Sketches and Stories of Famous Scholars Some of these schools, while afl'ording free shelter, subsistence, and a classical education to certain bene ficiaries, are attended by a far larger number of boys who pay handsomely for the instruction received, as in the case of the Oppidans of Eton College, who, as the name implies, live in the town while pursuing their studies at the school. To this class belong Rugby, Harrow, Eton, Westminster, and Winches ter schools. On the other hand Charterhouse, St. Paul's School, Merchant Taylors, and Christ hos pital are purely benevolent institutions, whereat the tuition furnished is equal to that of any of the Sister hood of schools, though the benefits bestowed are by no means regarded as charitable. They are sup ported by ancient endowments from the crown or from wealthy citizens, or by incomes derived from rents and other investments.

This year (2022) has seen the sad death of the late Queen of England and this Christmas will be the first Christmas without her and her globally famous Queen's Speech at Christmas. This very timely book is a true story and work of faction that is written retrospectively, remembering the Queen of England and what she meant to a great many of her fans and also school children in the UK when she first came to her throne in 1952. England and its new Queen were on a very different planet, as they were likewise in 1953 when she became the first British monarch to let the television cameras into her life and become Britain's Television Queen thereby on a second parallel planet. These were 1950s planets that have now disappeared, or are fast disappearing, into the mists of time, as has the unforgettable Queen Elizabeth II. The story told in these pages is a very surprising, interesting and historically significant factional narrative. It's not only for the fans of the late Queen who is still fresh in their minds and with a place in their hearts during this first Christmas without her, but also for history buffs, students and lecturers of history and/or literature, lay-readers and bookworms and perhaps even republicans who monitor these affairs. The narrative is for all who like to touch social and royal history and get the feel of its handshake, written by one of the few authors remaining today who saw the Queen of England in at her televised coronation in 1953. He has now seen her out again this year in his twilight years at her massively televised lying in state and state funeral. It's a most extraordinary tale of social history and also of an unknown family's history and education, revealing how Queen Elizabeth related to and influenced her people when she first came to her throne. There were very different values and attitudes of mind and characters back then, when her fans were very different people indeed. Bob Crew is an author of several factual books who is also a former correspondent of The Times and Financial Times newspapers in London, as well as a graduate of the University of London, of which today's patron is Princess Anne. There really are few books of fact or fiction like this one, the story of which is chiefly about an unknown schoolboy and his family during the new reign of Queen Elizabeth II, as she and the 1950s history in question here cast its shadow over them all.

‘The latest in the series of powerful books on the divisions in modern Britain, and will take its place on many bookshelves beside Reni Eddo-Lodge’s Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People About Race and Owen Jones’s Chavs.’ –Andrew Marr, Sunday Times ‘In his fascinating, enraging polemic, Verkaik touches on one of the strangest aspects of the elite schools and their product’s domination of public life for two and a half centuries: the acquiescence of everyone else.’ –Observer In Britain today, the government, judiciary and military are all led by an elite who attended private school. Under their watch, our society has become increasingly divided and the gap between rich and poor is now greater than ever before. Is this the country we want to live in? If we care about inequality, we have to talk about public schools. Robert Verkaik issues a searing indictment of the system originally intended to educate the most underprivileged Britons, and outlines how, through meaningful reform, we can finally make society fairer for all.
