Phil Baker is a writer based in London. His books include The Devil is a Gentleman- The Life and Times of Dennis Wheatley, and Austin Osman Spare- The Life and Legend of London's Lost Artist, of which Alan Moore has said Phil Baker has established himself as among the very best contemporary biographers... What he has accomplished here is little short of marvelous.
