Frank Richards : [stories in the Magnet]

'For Paul Fletcher, a colliery winder's son in a Lancashire mining town, the Magnet's appeal lay precisely in that "code of schoolboy honour". "Although I never realised it at the time, it proved to influence me more about right or wrong than any other book", he recalled, "And that includes the Bible". After all, the Greyfriars code "was as well defined as the scriptures [were] nebulous".'

Century: 1900-1945     Reader/Listener/Group: Paul Fletcher      Print: Serial / periodical
