Autorenporträt

Helen and Neil Matthews (slowchilterns.com) have lived in the village of Prestwood, in the heart of the Chilterns, for more than 30 years. Helen is Chilterns born and bred: her family ties to the area can be traced back for centuries. She is the Chair (and a founder member) of a local conservation charity and a member of the Chiltern Society's Heritage Group. Neil's 25 years in marketing includes stints with local charities in Aylesbury and Saunderton. As well as writing both editions of Bradt's The Chilterns and the Thames Valley (Slow Travel), Helen and Neil have also written Bradt's Heritage Weekends: 52 Breaks Exploring Britain's Past and updated Bradt's Freedom Pass London. Both hold PhDs in history. Pen & Sword published Helen's The Legitimacy of Bastards: the Place of Illegitimate Children in Later Medieval England (2019) and Neil's Victorians and Edwardians Abroad: the Beginning of the Modern Holiday (2016).
