The enigma of Kidson
Blackett, Jamie2018
Book
A highly personal memoir on Eton master, Michael Kidson (1929-2015) by former pupil Jamie Blackett. Kidson was a deeply unconventional schoolmaster with a passion for his subject, a brilliant didactic style, breath-taking rudeness, eccentric mannerisms and catchphrases, a maverick attitude towards authority, and above all, a deep empathy, loyalty and dedication towards his boys. This biography features numerous recollections and vignettes of incidents in the classroom or the tutorial.
