Reader's note

This brilliant vintage edition of A. A. Milne's Those Were the Days is four titles in one! Filled with all of the wit an warmth that A. A. Milne is so renowned for! The Day's Play Centres around the great British Past-time of Cricket - The Major has taken a great deal of trouble with his ground, and the result pleases everybody. If you are a batsman you applaud the short boundaries; if you are a wicket-keeper (as I am), and Thomas is bowling what he is pleased to call googlies, you have leisure to study some delightful scenery; and if you are a left-handed bowler, with a delivery outside the screen, there is behind you a belt of trees which you cannot fail to admire. When Archie was born, and they announced the fact to the Major, his first question was (so I understand), "Right or left handed?" They told him "Left" to quiet him, and he went out and planted a small forest, so that it should be ready for Archibald's action when he grew up. Unfortunately, Archie turned out to be no bowler at all (in my opinion)—and right-handed at that. Nemesis, as the ha'penny papers say. - ruthless in his opinions yet charming in his delivery, books by A. A. Milne never fail to delight.
