Category : Self-Help

Book Description
Once a month, Lord Loam encourages his servants to enter the drawing room for tea.

When the entire household is shipwrecked and stranded on a desert island, a new social order emerges ― with comic results for master and servant. This classic English comedy, written by the author of Peter Pan, combines light entertainment with serious undertones concerning the class structure of British society during the early twentieth century. First produced in 1902, the play was adapted for radio and television and has been frequently revived on the stage.
