Alan Powers is a researcher and writer specialising in art, architecture and design. Powers trained as an art historian at the University of Cambridge, gaining an undergraduate degree and a PhD and has subsequently written books on the design of dust jackets, shopfronts, book collectors, and the popular artist Eric Ravilious.
