1 and 2:- I agree.
3:- he copied some house he had seen . I can't agree there. If that were true, AR would merely be going back to being a press reporter, and noting down what he saw. Surely the S&A books are much more than that. I think we should acknowledge AR's powers of imagination and creativity. Anyone could wander round the Lake District making a written note on each house he or she saw - where's the talent in that?
