Writing as Alpha of the Plough, the editor A. G. Gardiner turns small moments into essays: a silent fellow passenger on the last train out of London, pockets and their contents, a country railway platform, a distant view of a pig, giving up tobacco, and the temptation to shelter all night in the Tube while the air raids of the First World War went on overhead.
Gentle, humane short essays in the tradition of Lamb and Chesterton, perfect for reading one at a time. Download the free EPUB.
