J. Francis Hitching is a dowser & author whose books often focus on the paranormal. According to the biography in his The World Atlas of Mysteries, he was born in 1933, growing up in Stratford-upon-Avon, where a grandfather, Randle Ayrton, was a noted Shakespearian actor. He studied in Warwick, but in 1950 left, becoming a newspaper reporter, then a magazine journalist, before producing the tv music program Ready Steady Go! While filming a documentary at Carnac in France, the megaliths he saw there inspired him to spend the next four years researching Earth Magic, on the subject of standing stones. According to The World Atlas: "he was impressed by the dowsers he met who seemed instinctively to know why the stones had been erected. Some of their information about psychic matters was so extraordinary that he decided they warranted a full investigation & explanation; hence his next book Pendulum."
