In hindsight, it would have been better to dip in and out of it rather than to read it all in one go, as the poems did start to feel a bit similar after a while. Such beautiful writing but I found it felt very similar after a bit. I wouldn't call E. Nesbit a Great Poet I guess I would call her an uneven poet. Some of the poems in this collection speak to the soul, some are good in spots, and some are competent, barely.

She was also a political activist and co-founded the Fabian Society, a socialist organisation later connected to the Labour Party. Edith Nesbit was born in Kennington, Surrey, the daughter of agricultural chemist and schoolmaster John Collis Nesbit. The death of her father when she was four and the continuing ill health of her sister meant that Nesbit had a transitory childhood, her family moving across Europe in search of healthy climates only to return to England for financial reasons. Nesbit therefore spent her childhood attaining an education from whatever sources were available—local grammars, the occasional boarding school but mainly through reading. At 17 her family finally settled in London and aged 19, Nesbit met Hubert Bland, a political activist and writer.

He is a solitary man, yet the friends he makes along the way will put everythinh away and come to help him in his ho this book confirmed, as if I needed one more reason, the high position of Nevil Shute in my list of favorite authors. He is a solitary man, yet the friends he makes along the way will put everythinh away and come to help him in his hour of need.

One pilot attempts to save the life of another who has crashed in trying to rescue a child with appendicitis. This is in northern Tasmania in the s. As The Rainbow and the Rose might guess, the weather is terrible both when the first pilot crashes and when the second pilot tries to fly in a doctor to save the lives of not only the child but now the pilot too.

  • Engineer, Aviator, Author & Model Engineer
    Nevil Shute: Engineer, Aviator, Author & Model Engineer NEVIL SHUTE: ENGINEER, AVIATOR, AUTHOR AND MODEL ENGINEER by Allan J Bester Few people may be aware of the multifaceted life of Nevil S Norway, better known as Nevil Shute, a popular novelist of the latter half of the last century. Nevil Shute Norway Born on 17 January 1899 in Ealing, a suburb to the west of London, Nevil Shute Norway was the younger son of Arthur Norway and his wife Mary (nee Gadsden). Arthur Norway was a senior civil servant in the General Post Office in London. At the age of 11, Nevil, tormented by the unsympathetic responses of both pupils and teachers to his unfortunate bad stammer, played truant from his first preparatory school in Hammersmith, preferring the mechanical challenges posed by the steam engine and model aircraft displays at the Science Museum in South Kensington. He was especially captivated by the engineering and mechanics evident in the Blériot and Antoinette aircraft of the period. As a result of his truancy, he was moved to the Dragon School in Oxford, where he developed extramural interests in sailing, motorcycle engines and aeroplanes, and thence to Shrewsbury School in 1913. In 1912, his father was transferred to Dublin, Ireland as Secretary to the Post Office (the highest position in the Post Office), and Nevil remained with friends in Oxford to finish his schooling. Nevil and his older brother Fred shared a Rudge Multi motorcycle bought new in 1914, a month after the Great War commenced. Less than a year later, 19-year old Fred was seriously wounded in action in Flanders, dying of his wounds three weeks later.
