John Moore (10 November 1907–1967) was a best-selling British author and pioneer conservationist. He was described by Sir Compton Mackenzie as the most talented writer about the countryside of his generation. His best-selling trilogy, published in the immediate post-Second World War years - ''Portrait of Elmbury'', ''Brensham Village'' and ''The Blue Field'' - was followed by a series of novels and self-styled 'country-contentments'. ==Literary career== In all, Moore was the author of more than 40 published works, most of which explored themes relating to rural life in the first half of the 20th century. He also wrote the script of the 1957 film ''The England of Elizabeth'', which is noted for its score composed by Vaughan Williams. From 1943 to 1949 Moore was the organiser of the Tewkesbury Play Festival. He was also the founder and driving force behind the Cheltenham Literary Festival which was inaugurated in 1949. He also contributed a weekly column on rural matters to the ''Birmingham Mail'' for eighteen years and was a frequent broadcaster on radio.
