Talk:Hilaire Belloc

Return to "Hilaire Belloc" page.

Author's name

I cannot find anywhere a reference to a "Joseph Belloc" that does not redirect immediately to "Hilaire" or, if off-line, state within ten words that the man is known as "Hilaire Belloc".

My books here all have "Hilaire" on their spines or, if anthologies, have him under "Hilaire Belloc" in their indexes.
The Cds and LPs that contain songs written to his magnificently irrelevant verses list these songs under "Hilaire Belloc".

I am writing from the perspective of one who was introduced to him 60 years ago this year.

Please give his preferred name the primacy it deserves.
