Mr. Hilton`s classic story of an English schoolmaster.

Mr. Chipping, the classics master at Brookfield School since 1870, takes readers on a beguiling journey through the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Sometimes Chips, as he is affectionately known, is an old man who dreams by the fire; then he`s a difficult young taskmaster schooling his students, or a middle-aged man encountering the lovely Katherine, whose `new woman` opinions work far-reaching changes in him. As succeeding generations of boys march onward through Chips` mind, Hilton`s narrative remains masterful. He seamlessly interweaves a poignant love story with the jokes and eccentricities of English public school life, while also chronicling a new, uncertain world full of conflict and upheaval that extends far beyond the turrets of Brookfield.
