SYNOPSIS: "Novel starts at St. Ambrose College, Oxford, London, last of a series tracing the life and experiences of 'Tom Brown' through school, sequel to School Days at Rugby. Author's comment: '. .so now that this book is finished, and Tom Brown, so far as I am concerned , is done with forever, I must take this my first and last chance of saying that he is not I. In fact, not to beat about the bush, is a much braver, and nobler, and purer fellow than I ever was. I tried to realize to myself what the commonest type of English boy of the upper middle class was, so far as my experience went; and to that type I have throughout adhered.' Contents include: St. Ambrose's College, A Row On The River, A Breakfast at Drysdale's, Hardy The Servitor, An Explosion, A Brown Bait, Summer Term, The First Bump, New Ground, The Reconciliation, and The Englebourn Constable."
