description: Connecticut schoolteacher Evelyn Copeland wanted to experience the literature she had been teaching her students, to gain firsthand knowledge of the people, traditions and culture she had grown to love and profess. So with the help of a Ford Fellowship, she took a sabbatical and went to Great Britain, living there from 1954 to 1955. On this visit she accomplished her goal—to visit and photograph places associated with the literature she taught and loved.During numerous visits since then, she has experienced even more. She found the British people always wonderfully friendly and hospitable. They entertained her in their homes and helped with her project. The friendships made half a century ago have become even more enriched.
