Walter James Dodd
Excerpt from Walter James Dodd: A Biographical Sketch Walter Dodd's life was beautifully coherent. Through the apparently accidental encounters which led to the work that brought him distinction and suffering, there runs the unifying logic of his personality. He was self-made in the finest sense of the word, for every forward step in his career cost labor and pain. Yet in another sense he seems to have been predestined to do what he did do. His was the destiny of character. He had many virtues which are not uncommon in men, industry, courage, strength of will, humor, kindness.

Walter James Dodd
Excerpt from Walter James Dodd: A Biographical Sketch Dodd was born in London, April 22, 1 869, the youngest child and only son in a large family.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty and Other Pieces
James Thurber is universally admired for his hilarious sense of humour, off-beat imagination and unique take on the world around him. The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, in which a young man's fantasies have a much more powerful hold on him than reality, is probably his best-known prose work, but this selection also contains wonderfully entertaining essays, poetry and cartoons gathered from all of Thurber's collections. Poking fun at his own weaknesses and those of other people (and dogs) - the English teacher who looked only at figures of speech, the Airedale who refused to include him in the family, the botany lecturer who despaired of him totally - James Thurber is essential reading for everyone who loves to laugh.

North Oxford
And she looks at the inhabitants of the estate, members of the professional middle class whose social, religious, and educational views did not always necessarily fit into the traditional life of the Oxford colleges. Continuing her study up until 1970, Hinchcliffe also provides some interesting observations on the fate of Victorian suburbs and the efforts that have been made to maintain their character over time.
