Book Description
What is it about Eton College? For many, it is a symbol of all that is wrong with Britain. For others, it represents a beacon of tradition and excellence in an otherwise monochrome world. This work draws on the author’s experiences as an “OE”, as well as those of teachers and fellow pupils to evaluate the phenomenon that is Eton.
