ARMYTAGE, Walter Harry Green
- ARMYTAGE, Walter Harry Green
(1915-)
South-African born UK writer and professor of education. Of interest to sf readers among WHGA's 14 books is Yesterday's Tomorrows: A Historical Survey of Future Societies (1967). Primarily concerned with literary versions of the shape the future may take, it assembles its materials mainly from the 19th and 20th centuries, sometimes from books not well known to sf readers. It is not a critical work, and the material in its wide range seems sometimes to be merely cited rather than digested; it is, nevertheless, a useful work of scholarship.
