There is some discussion of the possibility of Arthur and Laurie Shields working on a book about Arthur's career in the Abbey. Laurie Shields is quoted as saying 'It's a period that Arthur, with his terrific recall, is possibly one of the few people left who has access to the "back story" - the story the front - the one that's in the pages of the books that are available now. And if he owes it to no one else - he owes it to his daughter, his son and his grand-children.'
