- Synopsis
- A delightful selection of articles by the ever-popular A. A. Milne, many of which haven't been in print for decades. Introduced by the prize-winning children's author Frank Cottrell Boyce, this volume brings Milne's brilliant non-fiction back to the spotlight.A. A. Milne was a successful writer long before the classic Winnie-the-Pooh stories made him famous. Milne had a talent for regularly turning out a thousand whimsical words on lost hats and umbrellas, golf, married life, cheap cigars, and any amount of life&’s little difficulties. This anthology, spanning four decades of Milne&’s life, includes his fiercely argued writings on pacifism. Happy Half-Hours features the very best of A. A. Milne in one delightful volume.&“Milne&’s gift to write amusingly about the most trivial things is a kind of blessing. The kind that can put you back together again when all else fails.&” —Frank Cottrell-Boyce, from his introduction
