Charles Moseley has written a large number of books and articles,
mainly to do with his academic interests.
Recent published essays range from Elizabethan painting
to nineteenth century printing technology and the topographical
drawings of Alfred Wainwright.
In 1996 he published A Field Full of Folk, an account
of his and his wife’s life in the then remote village
on the edge of the Cambridgeshire Fens to which they moved
in 1963. A ‘prequel’ to that book, on growing
up in the Lancashire of the 1940s and 50s, may follow shortly.
One of Charles' most recent books, Cambridge Observed,
written with the poet Clive Wilmer, is an anthology of impressions
of Cambridge, and will one day be followed by a further anthology,
Cambridge People.
