There are a couple of memorable bits (Sir Francis Drake trying to sneak a pike through Customs), but it doesn't seem as funny now as it did when I was eleven, and even then, it was not the funniest of Willans and Searle's sequels to the classic "Down with Skool". MB 18-ix-2008 ( )

The third book in the Molesworth series of satires on English boarding school life. Superb ink cartoons by Ronald Searle
Chapters include:
How to be a young Elizabethan
school life through history
school life in the future
guide to girls, and life in girls' schools
all about horse-racing
the Molesworth Master Meter
school holidays at home
life after school: careers.
All very amusing, though not quite as good as the first 2 books. ( )
