Vintage Jack: Extracts and drafts from 'I'll Show You Tyrants'

The first edition of 'I'll Show You Tyrants' was published by UKAPress in 2005. It spoofs the Dead Poet genre, and contains a full, scholarly introduction. Collected in this set are all the various ABCTales drafts that eventually found their way into the book in some form or another.
