Description - Ensign Knightley, And Other Stories by A E W Mason
A vivid window into a changing world, where wit, witlessness and moral resolve collide in crisp Edwardian prose. Ensign Knightley, and Other Stories gathers A. E. W. Mason's keen portraits of turn of the century Britain into one masterful short stories collection. This anthology of tales offers a compact, enduring pleasure: sly social mores critique, brisk plotting, and lucid character studies that illuminate everyday life in Edwardian Britain. Read as a complete short stories collection, the book rewards every casual reader who loves a tightly crafted narrative, and every classic literature collector who prizes a transferable sense of atmosphere, manners, and moral edge. The tales function beautifully in the classroom too-sharp, conversation-starting material for teacher classroom use, book club discussions, and thoughtful group reading sessions. Historically, Mason's work stands as a touchstone of British short fiction, capturing the nuances of a society on the cusp of modernity. This edition honours that heritage: Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations, the text preserves voice, texture and period flavour with care. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure for edwardian era readers and beyond, a e w mason collection that will delight both new readers and seasoned enthusiasts.
