The End of the Book
I am very grateful to Mr Elgar Atkins of Horatio Nelson Way, Bloggington on Sea for this article from his box.
Mr Atkins is, of course, the author of "Naval Manoeuvres in Bloggington Bay in the reign of Queen Anne" in 26 volumes. A rare complete set of these fine editions used to stand in the Naval History section of the Carnegie library on the dockside at Bloggington, but now volumes 12-16 have been removed in order to provide sleeping quarters over the radiator for Perkins the library cat.
Just now Perkins and Mr Grimsdyke, the town librarian, are on secondment to the northern city of Dumchurch.
