Richmal Crompton's 'William' is known even to those who have never read the stories. But what do we know of his creator? So shy of fame was she that, owing to her unusual name, many assumed she was a man. Mary Cadogan here provides a portrait of a witty and talented writer, and a celebration of her works.
