Talbot Baines Reed
Talbot Baines Reed (3 April 1852 – 28 November 1893) was an English writer of boys' fiction who established a genre of school stories that endured into the mid-20th century.
Among his best-known work is "The Fifth Form at St. Dominic's".
He was a regular and prolific contributor to "The Boy's Own PaperB.O.P."), in which most of his fiction first appeared.
Through his family's business, Reed became a prominent typefounder, and wrote a standard work on the subject: "History of the Old English Letter Foundries".
Reed's father, Charles Reed, was a successful London printer who later became a Member of Parliament (MP).
Talbot attended the City of London School before leaving at 17 to join the family business in Fann Street.
His literary career began in 1879, when the "B.O.P." was launched.
The family were staunchly Christian, pillars of the Congregational Church, and were heavily involved in charitable works.
However, Reed did not use his writing as a vehicle for moralising, and was dismissive of those early school story writers who did, such as Dean Farrar.
Reed's affinity with boys, his instinctive understanding of their standpoint in life and his gift for creating believable characters, ensured that his popularity survived through several generations.
He was widely imitated by other writers in the school story genre.
In 1881, following the death of his father, Reed became head of the company.
By then he had begun his monumental history which was published in 1887.
Along with his "B.O.P." contributions Reed wrote regular articles and book reviews for his cousin Edward Baines's newspaper, the "Leeds Mercury".
He was a co-founder and first honorary secretary of the Bibliographical Society, and a trustee for his family's charities.
All this activity may have undermined his health; after struggling with illness for most of 1893, Reed died in November that year, at the age of 41.
Tributes honoured him both for his contribution to children's fiction and for his work as the definitive historian of English typefounding.
