Description
Excerpt from The Bars of Iron
Brief and contemptuous the question fell. The Speaker was a mere lad. He could not have been more than nine teen. But he held himself with the superb British assur ance that has its root in the British public school and which, once planted, in certain soils is wholly ineradicable.
The man he faced was considerably his superior in height and build. He also was British, but he had none of the other''s careless ease of bearing. He stood like an angry bull, with glaring, bloodshot eyes.
