Hugh Nowell obituary

Tue, 25 Nov 2025

My former colleague Hugh Nowell, who has died aged 98, was for many years a senior figure at Grosvenor Books, a publishing company connected to the Moral Re-Armament movement.

A co-founder of the firm in the early 1960s, Hugh continued there until his retirement at the age of 70 in 1997. During this time he worked as joint chief executive and then managing director.
