The Peculiar Triumph of Professor Branestawm:
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
The wacky world of a peculiar professor.
He's back again, the lovable Professor with his five pairs of spectacles, his pockets full of all manner of things, and of course, his wonderfully bizarre inventions. Norman Hunter's irrepressible humour packs every page and the illustrations entirely capture the eccentricity of the professor and the hilarity of his incredible adventures.
Norman Hunter was born in 1899 in Sydenham, London. After leaving school he became an advertising copywriter. His first Professor Branestawm book was published in 1933. After living in South Africa, he returned to England, where he lived by the river at Staines until his death in 1995.
