S. H. Burton

Samuel Holroyd "Tim" Burton (30 November 1919 – 6 December 2005) was a British school teacher, college lecturer and prolific author of English language textbooks and books about the west of England.

[2] He received a scholarship that enabled him to attend Longton High School and then Queen's College, University of Cambridge.

It was published in Longman's Structural Readers series in 1986 where the text is designed to suit particular levels of English language proficiency.

Shakespeare's Life and Stage (1989), the fruit of a lifetime's study, was a major work that included an extended discussion of the bard's education,[3] but the poor sales were a great disappointment to the author.

In Devon Villages (1972), Burton described the problems unseen by tourists, such as young people leaving to find work, clergymen spread between multiple parishes, and the difficulty of forming a cricket team.
