Second Home: Life in a Boarding School - A Memoir of Growth & Friendship | Perfect for Students, Educators & Parents" （如果原始标题是中文："第二家园：寄宿学校的生活"） 优化后的英文标题： "Second Home: Life in a Boarding School - Inspiring Stories for Students & Parents | School Life, Education & Personal Growth

An uninspiring collection of essays on present day life in American Boarding Schools. The book aims to follow in the footsteps of a number of distinguished paens to life in the English Public Schools. A surfeit of realism and an excess of youthful sincerity robs the essays of all interest. The result is a compendium neither erudite nor amusing. A sort of Lonely Planet Guide to boarding schools - except less informative. Do give it a pass.
