I am looking for any books by Ursula Horsley-Smith. They were first published in the late 1950 to early 1960s and they are childrens books. I had them as a child and want to particularly obtain Land Of No Time and The Door That Wasn't There. I would be very grateful of any information on these. Thank you in anticipation Jean

She only wrote 4 books and they a pretty rare. I think you would have to ask your local library or a good bookshop to order you a copy. Incidentally the books are:
White Horses (Guilford Press, London, 1954)
Door That Wasn’t There (Guilford Press, London, 1956)
The Land of No Time (Guilford Press, London, 1957) and Later Caxton Publishing Co. London, No date)
Sunset Cottage (Guilford Press, London, 1960) and Later Caxton Publishing Co. London, No date)

Hi Robert.
Thank you sooo much for your email. Unfortunately I have White Horse. My husband bought it for me as a suprise. The ones I really am after are 'Land of No Time' and 'The Door That Wasn't There'. I really would love to purchase these two.
If you are interested in selling White Horses I think you will get quite a good price for it as they are very rare and sought after. I would try ebay or Amazon if I were you.
If you do hear of anyone with the two books I am after I would be very obliged if you could let me know.
Thank you again for getting back to me.
Kind regards Jean

My mother died recently and I have found a book from when I was a little girl that you seem to be looking for.
The Doot That Wasn't There by Ursula Horsley-Smith.
The hardback cover is a bit markede and faded. The book otherwise is intact and quite good condition.
If you are still looking for this book please answer back.
