Originally issued in 1933, as a supplement to the British Weekly, James Hilton's novella Goodbye, Mr. Chips tells the story of a beloved schoolteacher, Mr Chipping, and his long tenure at Brookfield School, a fictional minor British boys' public boarding school located in the fictional village of Brookfield, in the Fenlands. The story was adapted into a 1969 musical film starring Peter O’Toole and Petula Clark, with songs by Leslie Bricusse and an underscore by John Williams.
