Reading Experience:

Evidence:
'Monday 9th August. ?Between the Acts? ? (H.W. Nevinson). Pat is away now and we are feeling the pinch already. I have got a batch of my syllabus correspondence away, thank goodness. I still cannot find a good book dealing with the period of the VII and VIII Henries. It is curious since it was a period of great change and development, much active and intellectual life and considerable alteration in the manner of life of our people. No good novelist seems to have treated of it, however.'
