Barringer was a Quaker , born in England. He served in an ambulance unit during World War I . After the war he worked at various times as a civil servant and as an editor for English publishers Thomas Nelson & Sons and Amalgamated Press. Barringer and his wife had four daughters. Most of Barringer's written works were originally published in the 1920s and 1930s. Obscure as an author during his own lifetime, after his death his fantasies were rediscovered and critically praised by later fantasy authors such as L. Sprague De Camp and Lin Carter , leading to revived interest in them. As a result, a number of reprints appeared in the 1970s and 1980s, most notably as volumes 7, 9 and 13 of the '' Newcastle Forgotten Fantasy Library '' in 1976-77. To date there has been no comparable revival of Barringer's other works. BIBLIOGRAPHY Neustrian cycle
