  • Teacher, Teacher, I Declare!

    W. Royce Adams

    Paperback (Xlibris Corp, Sept. 27, 2000)
    TEACHER, TEACHER I DECLARE! and Other Little Tattle Tales contains twenty stories thematically related in that they all have to do with teachers. Not all are classroom stories, and sometimes the fact that the characters are teachers is incidental. But they all concern grownups on the edge of something risky, often a bit mad, sometimes mighty mad. The stories don't shrink from sex or from violence, and yet there is also a good measure of sardonic whimsy involved.

    Excerpt from Sacred Allegories: The Shadow of the Cross; The Distant Hills; The Old Man's Home; The King's MessengersIt is not, indeed, unmixed with a feeling Of regret that we imitate the Author's example, who, in the singleness of his heart, was unprepared for the effect on the public mind Ot°his own truthful pictures, and pained at the impression which universally prevailed, that the story was a true one and declare (as he did in a subsequent edition of the work) that the events recorded are entirely fictitious, and that nothing is true in the story of I The Old Man's Home but the graphic description of the scenes where it is placed, and the moral which it inculcates.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
