Download date: 02. Oct. 2021 Introduction Aims and rationale According to the Oxford Encyclopaedia of Children’s Literature (on-line edition, 2006), the term ‘school story’ refers to a distinct literary genre in which ‘school is not just a backdrop but rather is the raison d’être of the novel’. It is a genre with a long pedigree. The first text of its kind is generally held to be Sarah Fielding’s The Governess; or, Little Female Academy (1749), a book which was very favourably received and which provided a model for a significant number of the children’s stories produced during the century following its publication. Sue Sims and Hilary Clare (2000) have identified over thirty such books for girls which appeared between 1749 and 1857, while Robert Kirkpatrick (2006) estimates that over a hundred stories set in boys’ schools were written during the same period.

If a front cover illustration is attributable to an artistor studio they will be named e.g. Heath Robinson, Huntrods, Fred Lowe or Barbelle. Some titles were published during the Second World War (1939 –45), sometimes in a smaller size when ink and paper were in short supply. These pieces of sheet music are secondhand, old and naturally enough, they may show signs of wear and tear. However, most of them are in excellent condition but in a few cases we consider that some damage such as edging tears, a shop stamp, pen marks or a signature are reasonable imperfections considering the age of these manuscripts.

"Men may come and men may go, ·but I go on for ever." - . The very thought is breathtaking that this is our 34th year. If we are spared, God willing, next year we shall reach what is called, ·though the reason eludes me, our Coral Jubilee. My very grateful thanks fo all our contributors who turn up so many onderful arti.eles every year and make it all possible, and to you, dear readers, whose love and loyalty make worth while every ounce of effort in its production. w Our thanks, too, to York Duplicating Services, and, especially to Mr. Gore­ Browne; for their superlative-work in'printing C .D. and its Annual during an - association which has continued between us for well over thirty years. We are so lucky with our good friends. 1980 has been a year of sunshine and shadow. The response to our 400th issue, way back.in the Spring, brought the very highest �egree of happiness. The shadow was cast by the passing to a higher life of a number of our loyal readers and friends - a few reaching advanced age, but some in the prime of life. At this time our sympathetic thoughts go out to all those who have lost de_ar ones in the past year. It only remains for me to wish you all a very Joyous and Peaceful Christmas, and may the New Year see all your brightest dreams come true.

As I have read the contributions as they have come along, once again I have marvelled at the devotion of those who have compiled them. Just think of the time they must have spent in swotting up the material,· just for example, the feature of Bill Loftl;I and Derek Adley in the Sexton Blake Circle section. Mark the care they have taken to get their statements correct. The same applies to the rest of our loyal band. There are several new names in the "Who's Who".

Now the old, old wish. "A Very Happy Christmas am Prosperous New Year to all
