Reviews for Positive Social Work

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is one of a series of books which features Commissioner Sanders and which take place in West Central Africa in the Edwardian era under British rule . Now it has to be said that in these days of 'Political Correctness',this series will be looked at by many readers with some disapproval. I'm afraid the racial and colonial references are not at all in line with todays thinking,and quite right too. However if you read them with reference to the times in which they are written,(1911) and read them purely as adventure yarns and escapism of the 'Boy's Own Paper' type then they will come across as most enjoyable books which can be read again and again.
