(Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Charles Wrey Gardiner (1901 - 13 March 1981) was an English writer and poet, editor and publisher, born in Plymouth. Gardiner was a noted and well-connected literary figure, particularly in London in the years around Second World War, though very much in the tradition of the literary amateur. His significance in publishing came with his editorship of the magazine Poetry Quarterly. He became its assistant editor in 1939, with its first edition published in Spring 1940 and continuing until 1953. Towards the end of 1940 he established the Grey Walls Press, in Billericay, Essex. Grey Walls subsequently merged with Falcon Press, the publishing company run by Peter Baker MP. Initially, this gave the company new capital but it later involved Grey Walls in Baker's bankruptcy.

These are: Volume 1 (1943) - Edited by Alex Comfort and John Bayliss - including a special 50-page surrealist section; Volume 2 (1944) - Edited by Alex Comfort and John Bayliss; Volume 3 (1945) - Edited by Fred Marnau; Volume 4 (1946) - Edited by Fred Marnau; Volume 5 (1949) - Edited by Charles Wrey Gardiner.'
