Local author Jamie Blackett's book about his Eton schoolmaster Michael Kidson.  Move over Mr Chips.  Kidson had everything that central casting requires of a legendary schoolmaster: a passion for his subject, a brilliant didactic style, a still walk, a smelly spaniel, breath-taking rudeness, eccentric mannerisms and catchphrases, a maverick attitude towards authority and above all, a deep empathy, loyalty and dedication to his boys.
