About the author
James Hooper was an English author whose work is now chiefly traceable through public-domain and library records. Project Gutenberg lists Souvenir of the George Borrow Celebration, and catalog records connect him with writing on Norwich and with museum-related subjects.
The evidence suggests he was closely involved with local history and natural history in Norwich. Titles associated with him include guides to the city and a work connected to the Norwich Castle Museum, which points to a career shaped by curation, documentation, and public education as much as by literary writing.
Because there are several notable people named James Hooper, reliable biographical details about this author are limited in the sources I could confirm here. No suitable verified portrait image was available from the pages I checked, so I have left the profile image blank.
