This review is from: The Admirable Crichton: A Comedy (Paperback)

I was given this story to read for an english class way back in the 1970's at Taylor Center High School. Being a teenager who did not have a habit of reading, I considered it a drudgery. Man did I have a thing or two to learn! This story has left an impression on me that I still can't shake off. Now in my 50's I have still not forgotten the great lessons learned in Sir J.M.Barrie's "The Admirable Crichton"

Not wanting to give much away to the reader in waiting, pay attention to how the characters are given life by this most gifted writer. I loved it when I first read it, and can't wait to get my hands on it again. I believe you'll enjoy it as well.
