About the author

 

 

William G. Jackman has been in the antique trade, buying, selling and collecting for 45 years. He has written numerous articles for the press and antique magazines, and has lectured on Georgian glass to dozens of Probus clubs, U3As, and other associations in the southwest of England. He is a member of the Glass Society, Silver Society and the Society of Authors.

This is Bill’s second non-fiction book. His first, Masonic Memorabilia for Collectors (Gemini Publications Ltd, 2002), an illustrated price guide, has sold well all over the world. He has written and published four poetry books (all proceeds donated to charity) and has written plays and a six-part situation comedy based on caravanning. He has published one novel, The Freemasons Daughter (Authorhouse, 2009), and two further novels are in preparation.

Bill is retired and lives with his wife Jinty in Weston-super-Mare.
