Scope and Contents

Tales from the Morte D'Arthur compiled by Henry Hodgson, GP, for his two sons, Jack and Teddy Hodgson. Unfortunately the two brothers were killed in the First World War and so Henry Hodgson passed the book to his godson, Uvedale Corbett (SE 1935), and he in turn passed it to his son, William Corbett (SE 1970) who subsequently gave it to the College. With an incomplete outline of history of the contribution made by the brothers to the First World War.
