James McConnell, a house master at Eton, provides a 1960s guide to life at the prestigious college. He discusses the traditions and the real day-to-day life of Etonians. 'Gradually a picture is built up for us of a modern Eton, a different picture perhaps from the popular image which is so often the object of our admiration, envy, ridicule, even hatred.' From the library of the ceramicist Gordon Baldwin, who was a teacher of Ceramics and Sculpture at Eton for 39 years. See less
