Book Description
The third volume in the best selling "DALES" series
Gervase Phinn, school inspector, begins his third year with a spring in his step for in April he will marry Christine Bentley, head teacher of Winnery Nook School. But before then he has to suffer the wicked repartee of his fellow inspectors on the subjects of love and marriage. The well-named Mrs Savage still attempts to exert her power via incomprehensible memos, and Connie continues to rule the Staff Development Centre with a broom of iron and duster of disapproval at any dirty marks. In the schools themselves Gervase Phinn faces every challenge with humour that is rarely far from the surface.
FromAudioFile
Yorkshire school inspector Gervase Phinn continues his wryobservations of the schools he visits daily in the third of his "dale"memoirs. Phinn is in his 30s as the action unfolds, so this bookincludes his romance with elementary school teacher Miss Bentley, whomhe marries. Because he falls hard for his fiancée, he aptly callsthis memoir HEAD OVER HEELS. A James Herriot without the animals, theauthor clearly loves the surroundings he knows so well, but that loveis tempered with honest laughter. He uses his Yorkshire lilt toconvince listeners they have their own knees tucked up under smallwooden desks and are gazing out the glass panes of tall school windowson the ever-enchanting green dales of the English North Country.E.V.
