got given this book and was wondering who R Hibbert was, his name and full address are written inside the book. The name rings a bell for wargaming but I can't remember what for, anyone help with my curiosity  :)

Assuming this is the little book by Wilson and Kipling. Hibbert rings a bell but can't remember why.
The artist formerly known as Dour Puritan!

Doesn't Kipling make exceedingly good cakes ?  ;)

And provides an exceedingly good commentary to Wilson's illustrations. What a Renaissance man - even writers fascinating stories set in the old Raj.

no, no confusion with Ron L Hubbard,  I know of the historian C Hibbert, possibly a relation to him ?
