ABOUT MEREDITH

Meredith Whitford 1950-2025
Publisher of two very successful historical novels, Treason and Shakespeare's Will, a biography, Churchill's Rebels: Jessica Mitford and Esmond Romilly, and the most recent novel, Missing Christina.
I was also an editor and manuscript assessor, director of Between Us Manuscript Assessment Service.
​
I live in South Australia, and I have a BA in English, history and Classics from the University of Adelaide, and a Master's Degree in Creative Writing from Flinders University. It was my university work that made me, after years of reading, decide to write about Richard III, Shakespeare, and the Romillys.
​
My latest novel, this one contemporary, is called "Missing Christina" and was published in print and as an e-book by Endeavour Press UK in July 2017.

Meredith passed away May 2025.
A sublime historical novel. It flows, it's real ... Whitford's writing is impeccable. Historical fact melds seamlessly with historical fiction.
