Place of Publication: London. Publication Year: 1997. Page Number: 289.] . Crabtree was a hugely influential figure in many circles during his lifetime.

Crabtree Foundation

The Crabtree Foundation was inaugurated at University College London in 1954 in honour of Joseph Crabtree. The major aim of the foundation is to restore Crabtree to his rightful place of eminence. Each year, another oration reveals a new aspect to Crabtree’s life and work.
