The Last Englishman. The Life of J.L. Carr (2003)


This is a full, authorised biograpy of J.L. Carr. There is bibliography at the back which seems to have been taken from the History of the QTP because the same books and maps are missing that Carr left out e.g. Hardy, Cowper, Buckinghamshire and Beadle County.
