ABSTRACT
Hankey began his year with the Oxford and Bermondsey Mission in the summer of 1911, at what was to be the start of three years’ hectic literary activity. These started with experiments in fiction, continued with his first published work, a series of ten articles on migrant life contributed from Australia to the Westminster Gazette (1913), and culminated in the publication, three months into the Great War, of his first book, The Lord of All Good Life.
