Pamela Whitlock
(1920 - 1982)
Katharine Hull and Pamela Whitlock met when they were school children (fourteen and fifteen respectively), whilst sheltering from a thunderstorm. They discovered shared interests and decided to write a story about ponies set on Exmoor, called The Far-Distant Oxus (1937). The two authors followed it with Escape to Persia (1938), The Oxus in Summer (1939) and Crowns (1947).
