Impressions – Mostly Oxonian, by Percy Corbett, Chapter 5 “Envoi”

The 5th Chapter of the 11 written by grandfather, Percy Corbett, about his time as a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford. This is a powerful piece about travel to Europe in the period after WW1. It is my favourite of all 11 chapters of this work and it relates to  issues in 2019 as much as to 100 years ago. The link goes to the Contents and Chapter 5. Previous posts include the earlier 4 chapters. Each reads well as a short story in its own right.
