I've just created a Victoria Schofield stub, along with a somewhat less stubby full list of publications. I read & appreciated her excellent biography of Earl Wavell (which entirely redefined & reassessed its subject) & recently acquired her latest 2 books, of which I believe particularly The Highland Furies has lasting interest for military historians. In fact, I was rather surprised not to find her on Wikipedia.

Even aside from her other books, notably on the Afghan/Pakistani region, a subject with which I'm less familiar (but I did notice that three of these have been reedited), the Wavell full-length bio alone, by its quality & scholarly significance, justifies inclusion.
