Moelwyn Merchant recalls his friendship and work with many artists in these pages: Josef Herman, John Piper, Dame Barbara Hepworth. Dame Elisaheth Frink, Kyffin Willams and many others appear in their words and works. Writers are frequent: Christopher Fry, Ted Hughes, R. S. Thomas, with Ezra Pound dominating the middle years. Merchant has been involved with film, libretti and his own varied writing. It is a lively history.
