About the author

Lawrence Foushee London was an American author born in 1908 and died in 2005. Reliable book listings connect him with Bishop Joseph Blount Cheshire: His Life and Work, a biography published by the University of North Carolina Press.

His work suggests a strong interest in North Carolina history, religion, and biography, especially the lives of people who shaped Episcopal life in the South. Even from the limited records available online, he comes across as a writer drawn to preserving local memory and historical detail.

Because online biographical information about him is fairly sparse, many personal details are hard to confirm with confidence. What is clear is that his writing remains discoverable through university press and library records, which have helped keep his work in circulation for later readers.
