- CHURCHILL, R(eginald) C(harles)
- (1916-)UK writer whose A Short History of the Future (1955), like John ATKINS's Tomorrow Revealed (1955), is an imaginary HISTORY, in this case set about AD7000, and similarly draws on genuine contemporary sources, mainly George ORWELL, into an unusually witty accounting of the course of history; in RCC's version, history comes in great cycles.JC
