Fourteen Revisited (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781409262794)

Includes the entire text of Donald Measham's 'Fourteen: Autobiography of an Age Group' (Cambridge University Press 1965) one of the classic collections of the UK Children's Writing movement. It was widely reviewed: 'D C Measham, an understanding and perceptive teacher in a British secondary school has given us all a warm and touching view of young people. In vigorous straightforward style, the authors unfolded their stories, and the result is now a lovely little book', Chicago Daily News (1965). The present, expanded, and reappraised work includes a 2008 Preface on teaching English in the 60s; a 1990 Afterword stemming from a reunion when the author met the now middle-aged autobiographers again; and, for the first time, samples of the work shown in facsimile. The new cover is based on a snapshot of a class day out, taken by one of the pupils.
