The William Quiz

[furrypusscat]

I appreciate there is a long time for closure of this quiz and I take note of certain criticisms. However answered all but one of these on my own but now would like help.

Author of 'An American view of England' (4,6) Name is to do with William-assume first name is 'Bill' or 'Will'
Thanks in advance.
