Ernest Sackville Turner

Ernest Sackville (E. S.) Turner (born 17 November 1909, died 6 July 2006) was an English freelance journalist and author who published 20 books, including ''Boys Will Be Boys'' (Michael Joseph, 1948), ''The Phoney War on the Home Front'' (St. Martin's Press, 1961), and ''What The Butler Saw'' (Penguin, 1962), and contributing to the Times Literary Supplement, London Review of Books, and regularly to the English satirical weekly magazine ''Punch'' (the latter for more than 50 years).
==Early life and education==
E. S. Turner was born in the Wavertree Garden suburb of Liverpool in the North West of England on 17 November 1909.〔〔 The obituary in ''The Scotsman'' refers to his birth being in Northumbria, see that reference.〕〔 His father, Frederick William Turner, "a churchgoer and a teetotaller, () a desk-man in the Post Office Engineering Department in Liverpool,"〔 was a descendant of Sir Barnard Turner, an Alderman and sheriff in London who commanded troops attempting to curb looting in the 1780 Gordon Riots in 1780,〔Andrew O’Hagan, 1998, "Seventy Years in a Filthy Trade:Andrew O’Hagan meets E.S. Turner," ''London Review of Books,'' Vol. 20 No. 20, October 15. 1998, pp. 3-6, see () accessed 27 May 2015.〕〔L. Namier & J. Brooke, 1985 (), "Turner, Sir Barnard (?1742-84), of Paul's Wharf, London," in ''The History of Parliament: the House of Commons 1754-1790,'' London:Secker & Warburg, ISBN 0436304201, see (), accessed 28 May 2015.〕 but who later died penniless less than a month into Parliament's assembly, after his election in 1784.〔 Turner’s mother, Bertha Pixton Norbury, was an amateur portrait and landscape painter, and oversaw a home "built for a class… (son E.S. thought ) extinct, that of ‘meritorious artisans’," with a "family bookcase... weighted with the massed works of Swedenborg… and a ‘splendid’ volume called ''The Bible in Pitman’s Shorthand''."〔
Turner's first school was in Shrewsbury, where he is said to have been "a good pupil," winning "a few prizes" and enjoying "memorising passages of Macaulay’s ''Lays''."〔 He went on to Orme Boys' School in Newcastle-under-Lyme,〔 and "()lthough he had the reserved, courteous and erudite air of an Oxbridge don," Turner never went on to attend university.〔 At the age of 17 his father presented him with "an ancient typewriter () for a fiver from a passing lorry," supporting his desire to write.〔〔〔Turner's "series of second-hand typewriters" was worthy of note; Turner recollected this apparent first purchase to ''LRB'' interviewer Andrew O’Hagan, thus: "I remember a van arriving out of the blue with a fine stock of near-prehistoric machines" whereupon his "father very decently bought one of these for £5 and I used it for many years." See O’Hagan, 1996, ''LRB'', op. cit.〕
