ALDRIDGE, James (1918) Australian-born novelist and journalist who has lived mostly in England. He has based his fiction on themes of contemporary history and on his love of nature; and several novels - Signed with Their Honour (1942) and I Wish He Would Not Die (1957) - are based on his experiences as a war correspondent. The main interest of his work is in its sympathetic handling of human concerns in a violent, chaotic modern world.
