Allan Chappelow (1919–2006) was an M.A. and twice a Prizeman of Trinity College, Cambridge, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, a Graduate Member of the British Psychological Society, and a member of the Royal Photographic Society. He had done post-graduate research at the London School of Economics and studied at the Slade School (specialising in sculpture), and was well-known in several countries for his photographic portraits of famous figures (of which those of Shaw were among the first).

From the Foreword Vera Brittain writes:“…It must surely be the most thorough and detailed examination of Shaw’s political, moral, and social views yet made by any biographer … Mr Chappelow has ranged far and wide in what has obviously been most painstaking and conscientious research over a long period, and the fruits of it are extremely well integrated and presented. After spending several weeks on this book my image of Shaw – hitherto always baffling and enigmatical – has become greatly clarified.I feel that Mr Chappelow’s analysis is eminently fair and objective, and of the utmost value as a contribution towards our understanding of this fascinating but also extraordinarily complex man of genius. I am certain that this is a book which no present or future student of Shaw and his time will be able to do without.”
