As a boy he knew Sir William Addison, long recognised as an authority on the Forest, and saw Churchill speak in his village in 1945. He grew up against the background of the Forest and visited it regularly when he was living elsewhere. He returned and became the proprietor of three private schools in the area, founding his own school in 1989.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Forest has come into many of his poems and other works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing a technique of objective narrative he developed in other works and drawing on personal experience to give the flavour of a personal memoir, he evokes the spirit of the Forest through its best-loved places and wildlife, and brings the Forest alive through his historical perspective, evocation of Nature and vivid writing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hunt, John Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47050010296560,"sku":"9781846945878","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781846945878_p0.jpg?v=1763747041","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781846945878","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
