Flitly-Smith studied railways probably like no other covering areas which most mortals would ignore or pass over as irrelevant to their own interest. Consequently much would have been lost to history had it not been for his recently discovered texts on amongst things as The facilities of the Somerset & Dorset Hammock (sleeping) cars in WW2 Water troughs on the Isle of Wight Pullman on the Listowel & Ballybunion & of course GWR Signal Box Cat. I promise most have more than a grain of truth so if you are or know someone who professes to be a rail expert let them wile away an evening or two seeking out the truth
- or not as the case maybe! Beautifully illustrated both with the genuine photograph & the drawings of the renowned Peter Barnfield this is a book to enjoy entertain & amuse.

Gwynne's Grammar

'Grammar is the science of using words rightly leading to thinking rightly leading to deciding rightly without which - as both common sense and experience show - happiness is impossible. Therefore: happiness depends at least partly on good grammar.' So writes Mr Gwynne in his small but perfectly formed new book. Mr Gwynne believes passionately that we must regain our knowledge of the lost science of grammar before it is too late. Formerly a successful businessman Mr Gwynne has for many years been teaching and tutoring just about every sort of subject to just about every sort of pupil in just about every sort of circumstance. His teaching methods are very much the traditional common-sense ones refined over the centuries that were almost everywhere until they were abolished in the 1960s.
Being disappointed in the standards of grammar he encountered in his pupils Mr Gwynne over time wrote this wonderful succinct and yet comprehensive little book - because nothing quite as suitable already existed. This edition also includes Strunk's classic guide to style explaining how to write well and the main pitfalls to avoid. Beautifully designed easy to understand and a joy to read Gwynne's Grammar" may be the best little book you will ever have in your life."
