Originally published in 1931, this book was written to provide teachers with 'detailed suggestions for the planning of English work in schools'. These suggestions were based on the author's experience of teaching in secondary schools and were intended to offer practical solutions, incorporating an understanding of the restraints imposed by examinations and timetabling. The text is divided into three main sections: 'General principles', 'The syllabus' and 'Aids'. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the teaching of English and the history of education.

John Fisher's times are remembered, but he is often not. While information on the Tudor period proliferates there is scarcely a mention of John Fisher. E.E. Reynolds' work is history rather than Hagiography, bringing out these details carefully from official state archives, ambassadorial correspondence, letters and near contemporary biography. In his introduction, Reynolds notes: ""Father Thomas E. Bridgett's Blessed John Fisher (1888) was the first full-scale biography to be based on a careful study of state papers; the result was a work that, once and for all, established the position and stature of John Fisher. . . Two generations have passed since this pioneer work; Bridgett was scrupulously careful not to go beyond the available evidence; since he wrote, other material has become accessible that strengthens the portrait given in Blessed John Fisher."" Reynolds makes use of all of this to bring further illustration to the only Cardinal Martyr in a must have for any historian of the Tudor period.

The rupture-test characteristics at 1350 degrees F of two wrought alloys in the solution-treated and aged condition, NR-82 (6059 modified-low carbon) and NR-84 (N-155 modified-low carbon), and three precision-cast alloys in aged condition, NR-71 (X-40), NR-87 (Co-Cr-Ni base-9Mo) and NR-90 (Co-Cr-Ni base-5Mo, 5W) are reported. The properties are shown to compare favorably with those of the strongeest similar alloys previously investigated. A correlation of NACA and OSRD data is presented, showing the variation of ruture strengths with temperature for the alloys between 1350 degrees and 2000 degrees F.

This book is a collection of tales, intended for young readers, focusing on explorers, pioneers and travellers.
Use of careful control over processing conditions in this investigation has shown that it is possible to correlate stress-rupture properties of forged alloys of the low-carbon N-155 alloy type at 1200 degrees F with systematic variations in chemical composition and that a wide range in properties can be obtained by such variations. However, no alloy was obtained which had properties which were outstanding compared with those of the standard basic analysis of low-carbon N-155 alloy.
