She perfected the art of the short, sharp column to work as a stylist and then – and many of the topics she covered are equally on-trend as a costume designer. Thirty years later Clare changed tack today. The column was filled with her views on men, to work alongside her daughter, children, fashion, beauty, food, interiors, travel, and Calypso, in The Indytute.

In Hold the Front Page!, a selection of her Sunday Express columns is brought together with a commentary by her daughter, writer Clare Hastings, to provide a fascinating insight into the 1950s – and into the public and private life of the first female star of London's Fleet Street. Anne Scott-James (1913–2009) was Women's Editor of Picture Post during the Second World War and Editor of Harper's Bazaar from 1945 to 1951. She wrote ‘The Anne Scott-James Page’ for the Sunday Express from 1953 to 1957 and was a columnist for the Daily Mail from 1960 to 1968.

  • Peter Carolin, Born 1936
    PETER CAROLIN, BORN 1936 The fifth generation of a Scots South American family, Peter Carolin’s naval National Service included the Suez debacle of 1956. As an architect, he worked for John Voelcker of Team 10 and with Colin St John Wilson on the British Library. He edited both the Architect’s Journal, Magazine of the Year, 1985, and arq, which was awarded the learned journal equivalent, 2002.

Introduction My father, a pipe smoker, was an unliterary man. And yet he loved books. He had an extraordinarily fine collection of antiquarian editions on Brazil. But I never saw him reading any of them and the only writing of his own that survives are his meticulous account books and a dry-as-dust book on how to set up a company in Brazil. We never tried to persuade him to write a memoir of his life – I think we knew that he wouldn’t have done so, for his Irishness was of a rather puritan kind and, despite an interesting life, he was not a man to talk about it or to see it in a wider perspective.

  • The Oxford Dictionary of Modern Quotations.TXT
    The Oxford Dictionary of Modern Quotations PREFACE Preface =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This is a completely new dictionary, containing about 5,000 quotations. What is a "quotation"? It is a saying or piece of writing that strikes people as so true or memorable that they quote it (or allude to it) in speech or writing. Often they will quote it directly, introducing it with a phrase like "As ---- says" but equally often they will assume that the reader or listener already knows the quotation, and they will simply allude to it without mentioning its source (as in the headline "A ros‚ is a ros‚ is a ros‚," referring obliquely to a line by Gertrude Stein). This dictionary has been compiled from extensive evidence of the quotations that are actually used in this way. The dictionary includes the commonest quotations which were found in a collection of more than 200,000 citations assembled by combing books, magazines, and newspapers. For example, our collections contained more than thirty examples each for Edward Heath's "unacceptable face of capitalism" and Marshal McLuhan's "The medium is the message," so both these quotations had to be included. As a result, this book is not--like many quotations dictionaries--a subjective anthology of the editor's favourite quotations, but an objective selection of the quotations which are most widely known and used. Popularity and familiarity are the main criteria for inclusion, although no reader is likely to be familiar with all the quotations in this dictionary. The book can be used for reference or for browsing: to trace the source of a particular quotation or to find an appropriate saying for a special need.
