About This Item
Synopsis
Leon Garfield (1921–1996) was born and raised in the seaside town of Brighton, England. Though his family’s fortunes fluctuated wildly, he enrolled in art school, left to work in an office, and in 1940 was drafted into the army, serving in the medical corps. After the war, he returned to London and began writing books for children. In all, Garfield would write some fifty books, and he is best known for Devil in the Fog ; the Whitbread Award winner John Diamond ; and the Carnegie Medal Honor Book, Smith: The Story of a Pickpocket , which is available from The New York Review Children’s Collection.
