Milne — playwright, crime writer, poet, humorist, and the man who created Winnie-the-Pooh — and of the bear himself: his genesis, his gentle philosophy, and a century of worldwide affection. It is also an intimate portrait of three generations of the gifted, troubled Milne family, who knew great fame and fortune and a complicated relationship with both. With a cast ranging from Queen Elizabeth II to Walt Disney, the book moves from an idyllic English childhood to 1930s New York and the love, litigation, and family rifts behind one of Britain's most brilliant writers and his most famous creation. Did You Know Gyles Brandreth knew the real Christopher Robin and his wife, and in the 1980s wrote a play about the Milne family — the seed of this book. He also founded an award-winning teddy bear museum. The book arrives just ahead of the 2026 centenary of Winnie-the-Pooh, first published in 1926. A. A.
