Charles 'Skipper' Lynam, the celebrated preparatory school
headmaster at the Dragon School, Oxford, during the First World
War, inspired a generation of his pupils as they found themselves
caught up in the conflict. This book tells the story of the
school's wartime years and the various fronts on which its boys
were involved. It traces the roots of a school founded by Oxford
dons for their children, its idiosyncratic ways and the
extraordinary relationship Skipper Lynam forged with his boys, some
of whom (in former pupil John Betjeman's words) 'lost their lives
for King and Country and the Dragon School'.
