About the author

Helen Berenice Thomas, née Noble, was the daughter of the journalist James Ashcroft Noble. She was born in West Derby, a suburb of Liverpool, in 1877 but grew up in London. She met the poet Edward Thomas in 1894 and married him in 1899, while he was still an undergraduate student at Oxford University. They had three children before he was killed at the Battle of Arras in 1917.

Helen wrote her first memoir of their life together, As It Was, in 1926, and followed it with World Without End in 1931. She died in Berkshire in 1967.
