The Strict Schoolmistress Anthology: 24 schoolboy tales of yesteryear
With over 73,000 words, this anthology of 24 schoolboy tales, typically set in boarding or preparatory schools, take place at a time when corporal punishment, usually by cane or slipper, occurred on an almost daily basis. Each story features a schoolmistress or matron who is a stickler for discipline. Often beautiful in appearance and perhaps possessing a softer side, she is nevertheless quite strict and doesn't hesitate to mete out six of the best with a whippy cane on a naughty boy's bottom whenever she deems it appropriate. Despite being subject to quite painful chastisements at her hands, the boys on the receiving end are often quite smitten with the pretty schoolmistress and some go out of their way to get themselves punished by her. Written with a nostalgic feel, these stories hark back to a time of yesteryear and capture an innocence and naivete no longer found in today's world.
