About the Author
Bevis Hillier is also the author of John Betjeman: New Fame, New Love, the compiler of John Betjeman: A Life in Pictures ('a heavenly book' A L Rowse), and the editor of Betjeman's Uncollected Poems. Betjeman himself appointed Hillier as his biographer. Patrick Taylor-Martin wrote: 'It is impossible to imagine the task done by anyone more intelligent, industrious or sympathetic.'
