Under the pseudonym "Bruce Truscot", E. Allison Peers coined the term "redbrick university" in the 1940s, in books which helped to shape developing attitudes and methods in British universities in the post-war years.

The whole work is most illuminating of an earlier period in British higher education and of the character and experiences of one of Britain's most distinguished Hispanists.
