<p>This edition of a familiar and ever-delightful classic of the stage is  intended to satisfy two current demands in the teaching of secondary English.   It  will make available for school use  the  most  successful  and  the  most  important, historically, of Goldsmith's plays. It will thus afford to pupils  and  teachers a wider field of choice, to suit their various and varying tastes. It will  also provide material for the more reasoned study of its period and  its  type.   All who read Macaulay's "" Johnson"", or the ""Selections"" from  Boswell,   or  Burke's ""Speech on Conciliation"", or Thackeray's ""English Humorists"", as well as  those who wish a text illustrative of Johnson's  period  in  the  history  of  English literature  or  English  drama,   will  here  find    their    needs    supplied</p>

Enough. Now, Cutbeard, with the same discipline I use to my family, I will question you. As I conceive, Cutbeard, this gentlewoman is she you have provided, and brought, in hope she will fit me in the place and person of a wife? Answer me not, but with your leg, unless it be otherwise.

JONSON, BEN

<p>There are many different kinds of historical novel - the family saga, the romance, the nostalgia novel, the adventure story, the 'straight' historical. However you may decide to handle your chosen theme it is essential that the novel is well-constructed and believable, with a strong sense of period and a storyline which keeps the reader turning the pages. In this revised edition Rhona Martin takes you through the painstaking, but enjoyable, research needed to establish both convincing background and characters, looks at ways of handling dialogue and language effectively and offers excellent advice on all aspects of structuring and crafting your work. The book concludes with a collection of hints and observations from a number of leading historical novelists, including Rosemary Sutcliff, Elizabeth Harris, Winston Graham and Jean Plaidy.</p>

It tells you all you need to know - and at what stage you need to know it - from the practicalities and pitfalls of early retirement, choosing a boat to live in, looking after her on the move, and organising your finances, to preventing ill health afloat, choosing suitable cruising grounds, achieving successful crew interaction and provisioning in far flung places. The fourth edition has been updated to take account of the recent far-reaching changes in bureaucracy, navigation and communications which have changed the life of the typical long-term cruiser. Sell Up and Sail is the complete kit for the cruising lifestyle: whether to coral islands or inland waterways, it is all here in this witty and readable book.
