Format:Hardcover
Not as witty as his previous works but definitively the work of Donald Jack. It is true to say that his work never seemed to recover from the end on the War and his sagas tended to ramble. Still, it was pleasing to see that Bart never quite got over his lack of respect for persons of authority. Does anyone know whether there are any plans to re-issue the original books?
Format:Hardcover
I was delighted to find a Bandy book in print that I hadn't seen before, but I can't say I actually enjoyed reading it all that much - a rehash of previous books with some very dim psychology stuffed into it. Let's hope the earlier books are back in print soon, I've lost all mine over the years. "That's Me In The Middle" - same author, same characters, is a true masterpiece.
Format:Hardcover
After reading this book, I must say that this is probably the finest work of Donald Jack. The jokes and punes are so subtle that you can read the book several times (As I have done) and discover new ones each time. A witty and very entertaining book.
