Alan Moorehead: A Rediscovery by Ann Moyal

by
May 2006, no. 281

Alan Moorehead, journalist and historian, was a celebrity in his day, but has not had the lasting reputation of others of his generation, such as George Johnston, perhaps because he never wrote a great novel. (Would Johnston still be famous had he not written My Brother Jack?) Furthermore, Moorehead’s historical works, while widely read, were not rated highly by academic historians, and thus have not entered the historical canon. Nevertheless, many of his books are currently in print.
