Hardback

Description

Foreword and Introduction by Colonel Richard Kemp CBETo CRGSThe path of countless ages has been trod By many a scholar now forgotten, saveFor the inscribed tombstone of his grave(If not already sunken 'neath the sod).   And if these men be now mere names or less,They've done their share to keep the School alive,And uphold that tradition we deriveFrom those men in the days of Good Queen Bess;And we must let our fame be ne'er outshone,Holding aloft the school's honour and name,That she may continue to rise in fame,Surpassing heights attained in years now gone.   However, this our work cannot be doneUnless a share is taken by each one.   - Flight Lieutenant Benjamin Robinson DFC RAF, former CRGS pupil, Killed in Action over Germany, 17th June 1944.
