Thread Name: Vaughan Williams Library head in 1993?
Subject: RE: Vaughan Williams Library head in 1993?
While working in the library late one afternoon, Malcolm told me that the chap who had been working across the table from me every day had just published a book. He thought I would like it so he loaned his copy to me.
It was called "William Cobbett and Rural Popular Culture" by Ian Dyck. I couldn't put it down. Next time Ian came in I told him. We took up eating and drinking pub food and reducing our productivity in the Library. Ian lived in Vancouver BC taught at Simon Frazer University but sadly he died quite young.
