Leonard Barnes

Leonard John Barnes MC and Bar (1895-1977) was a British anti-colonialist writer, journalist and educationalist. Educated at St Paul's School , he was awarded the Military Cross and Bar during World War I while serving with the King's Royal Rifle Corps and then attended University College, Oxford, before travelling to South Africa to work as a farmer and journalist and writing "The New Boer War", on colonial and development issues.

Barnes made two significant contributions to studies of youth work in 1948, with two notable reports for the Jubilee Trust, on the nature and objectives of youth work.
