Mother and Son both Routledge Authors

Book cover: Street-by-Street Retrofit

Our talented son, Scott McAulay, has just shared with us an image of his latest triumph – a foreword in another Routledge book. (He’s less than half my age, so who knows how much he’ll have published by the time he reaches my advanced years!)

So, this year, between us we’ve had a hand in three Routledge books, or four if you include the paperback edition of one I contributed to earlier:-

Scott McAulay (foreword), in Mike McEvoy, Street-by-Street Retrofit: A Future for Architecture (2024)

Karen E. McAulay, A Social History of Amateur Music-Making and Scottish National Identity: Scotland’s Printed Music, 1880-1951 (2024)

Scott McAulay (chapter and a co-authored chapter) in The Pedagogies of Re-Use: The International School of Re-Construction (2024), ed. Duncan Baker-Brown, Graeme Brooker

Karen E. McAulay (chapter) in new paperback edition of Music by Subscription: Composers and their Networks in the British Music-Publishing Trade, 1676–1820 (2024, hardback 2022)

Keeping it in the Family: our Routledge Year

The book I’m getting published later this year is not my first.

But our son Scott McAulay has beaten me to it, in being the first to see a Routledge publication this year – two chapters in this essay collection.  And I understand he’s in another collection, too.  Scott has an architectural background – we have very different specialisms! I’m a proud mum.

The Pedagogies of Re-Use

One of Scott’s illustrations is by his older brother, by the way!

In Praise of the Younger Generation (another McAulay author!)

Our middle son, Scott McAulay, has just shared details of a forthcoming Routledge book, The Pedagogies of Re-Use, in which he has one solo- and one jointly-authored chapter. I’m insanely proud! It’s ‘coming soon’ – Amazon says it’s due out on 6 June 2024 – so I look forward to the sight of the book actually in his hand before too long.
