| Publisher Description: Not That It Matters is a collection of essays that a appeared in a variety of newspapers at the beginning of the last century, sort of an upper class, mild mannered Dave Barry of the 20's. Many were charming and generally humorous in gentle, whimsical way, as you might expect from the author of Winnie the Pooh. Some were a bit dated such as the essay about the perfect walking stick or the one about pipe smoking and there is some use of some now un-politically correct language; but others felt just as current now as they must have been then, such as the essay titled "Intellectual Snobbery" about the shame one feels about reading popular fiction as opposed to the classics or the one titled "My Library", about the eternal quandary of how to best arrange one's books.
