author
Best known for compiling a detailed record of the Artists' Rifles in the First World War, this early 20th-century editor helped preserve the service, honours, and losses of the regiment for future readers. His surviving published work has the careful, documentary feel of someone determined not to let names and deeds be forgotten.
S. Stagoll Higham, identified by Project Gutenberg as Samuel Stagoll Higham, is known for The Regimental Roll of Honour and War Record of the Artists' Rifles, first published in 1922. The book is a large memorial and reference work on the 1/28th, 2/28th, and 3/28th battalions of the London Regiment during the First World War.
Contemporary records connected with the book describe him as Major S. Stagoll Higham, V.D., and the foreword presents the volume as a long, careful labor carried out with the help of many contributors. That fits the tone of the work itself: it is less a conventional narrative than a patient act of remembrance, gathering commissions, promotions, decorations, and losses into one substantial record.
Publicly available biographical information about him is quite limited, so it is safest to remember him chiefly as a military editor and compiler whose work preserved the history of the Artists' Rifles after the war. I could not confirm a suitable portrait image from the sources I checked.
