Biographical / Historical

Only one issue of the St. Botolph's Revew was published. It was so-named because several of the founders lodged at St. Botolph's Rectory. The editor was David Ross. At a party to launch the magazine at Falcon Yeard, Cambridge on 25 February 1956, Ted Hughes met Sylvia Plath.
