He has also written numerous books, including several books on The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and on children\u2019s writers such as C.S. Lewis. He has also contributed columns and reviews to several newspapers and magazines. He is the President of the Lewis Carroll Society, and an honorary member of the CBHS, The Magic Circle and the Tolkien Society.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hilary Clare<\/strong> read Modern History at St Hugh&#8217;s College, Oxford and subsequently trained as an archivist at the University of North Wales, Bangor. After a few years working in that field she became a teacher, and later a professional genealogist. An interest is children&#8217;s books in general led to specializing in girls&#8217; school stories, and also in the Victorian writer Charlotte Mary Yonge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Howard Bailes<\/strong> encountered Ronald Welch\u2019s wonderful books as a child and they contributed to his early fascination with history. Although he has plenty of historical and literary interests, he admits to a certain leaning towards military history, rather like Ronald himself. For some twenty years he led St Paul\u2019s Girls\u2019 School\u2019s annual tour of the Great War battlefields. Howard\u2019s PhD thesis concerned the Victorian army, on which he has published, along with articles on various topics, a book on the arts-and-crafts architect Gerald Horsley and a history of St Paul\u2019s Girls\u2019 School.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sarah Jardine-Willoughby<\/strong> is a retired librarian who worked mainly in the University sector, first at the LSE and then for nearly twenty years at Middlesex University, and also spent few years as librarian for the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance. She is an avid book collector of mainly children\u2019s books including Mrs Molesworth, Charlotte Yonge, Maria Edgeworth and of course Mrs Ewing &amp; Mrs Gatty. She is the Treasurer of the CBHS and more recently of the Charlotte M Yonge Fellowship<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Children&#8217;s Books History Society Study Day Saturday, 28th October 2023 9.30am-4.30pm Venue: Church Hall of the Crown Court Church of Scotland Russell Street Covent Garden London WC2B 5EZ The&#8230;<a class=\"read-more\" href=\"&#104;&#116;&#116;&#112;&#115;&#58;&#47;&#47;&#114;&#101;&#115;&#101;&#97;&#114;&#99;&#104;&#46;&#114;&#101;&#97;&#100;&#105;&#110;&#103;&#46;&#97;&#99;&#46;&#117;&#107;&#47;&#99;&#101;&#110;&#116;&#114;&#101;&#45;&#102;&#111;&#114;&#45;&#98;&#111;&#111;&#107;&#45;&#99;&#117;&#108;&#116;&#117;&#114;&#101;&#115;&#45;&#97;&#110;&#100;&#45;&#112;&#117;&#98;&#108;&#105;&#115;&#104;&#105;&#110;&#103;&#47;&#101;&#118;&#101;&#110;&#116;&#47;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#45;&#99;&#104;&#105;&#108;&#100;&#114;&#101;&#110;&#115;&#45;&#98;&#111;&#111;&#107;&#115;&#45;&#104;&#105;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#114;&#121;&#45;&#115;&#111;&#99;&#105;&#101;&#116;&#121;&#45;&#115;&#116;&#117;&#100;&#121;&#45;&#100;&#97;&#121;&#45;&#111;&#110;&#45;&#102;&#97;&#109;&#105;&#108;&#105;&#101;&#115;&#45;&#105;&#110;&#45;&#99;&#104;&#105;&#108;&#100;&#114;&#101;&#110;&#115;&#45;&#108;&#105;&#116;&#101;&#114;&#97;&#116;&#117;&#114;&#101;&#45;&#112;&#97;&#114;&#116;&#45;&#50;&#47;\">Read More ><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":804,"featured_media":2053,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"__cvm_playback_settings":[],"__cvm_video_id":"","_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"coauthors":[49],"class_list":["post-2051","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8.1 -
