Beschreibung

Slightly cocked, spine a little faded at head and foot, mild embrowning of free endpapers, dustwrapper (by Biro) slightly frayed. The author's first book. "The setting of Roaring Boys is that little-known and vital sector of English education, the secondary modern school. Drawing on his own experiences, the author describes the horror of a young teacher, himself with a middle-class background, who arrives in a tough urban school and has no idea how to deal with his rumbustious and reluctant pupils" (dustwrapper blurb). "[S]till the best book ever about life in the classroom" (Nicholas Tucker, Independent obituary of the author). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 31M100028
