Publishers move in mysterious ways. And regarding Hughes and Wilson, I think the feeling was quite mutual!

Prior to that, I had almost no knowledge of it -- the scope was remarkable. (Aside: Is this the same book as your Macmillan reference? Maybe a different edition?) I don't recall Hughes specifically, but on re-checking, I see that he does get an interesting index entry -- the final line under "Hughes, Billy" is " Wilson loathed by, pp.48-49, 93"...
