Their ''Modern Psychology and Education'' (1926) was welcomed by its ''Observer'' reviewer as "one of the most informative, interesting, and humorous things that I have ever seen as an attampt to write for training-college students".〔Kenneth Richmond, 'Parents and Psychology', ''The Observer'', 14 November 1926〕 They also adapted works for children for 'The King's Treasuries of Literature', a series edited by Arthur Quiller-Couch: ''The Canterbury Pilgrims'' bowdlerised some of the bawdier elements of the Canterbury Tales.〔Siân Echard, ''Printing the Middle Ages'', University of Pennsylvania Press, 2008, pp.141-2〕 Sturt's biography of Francis Bacon defended Bacon against Macaulay, whom she characterised as "a man writing in semi-ignorance to please the most hypocritical audience that ever existed".〔Quoted in 'Lord Chancellor Bacon' (book review), ''The Observer'', 6 November 1932, p.t〕 On retirement she taught for a year in Sarawak in Borneo.〔Mary Sturt, 'Teaching in Sarawak', ''The Guardian'', 14 July 1965, p.8〕 ==Works== * (with E.
