==Later life==
In 1946, White settled in [[Alderney]], the third-largest [[Channel Island]], where he lived for the rest of his life.<ref name="nybio"/> The same year, he published ''[[Mistress Masham's Repose]]'', a children's book in which a young girl discovers a group of [[Lilliput and Blefuscu|Lilliputians]] (the tiny people in [[Jonathan Swift]]'s ''[[Gulliver's Travels]]'') living near her house. ''Mistress Masham's Repose'' was influenced by [[John Masefield]]'s book ''[[The Midnight Folk]]''.<ref name="irwin" /> In 1947, he published ''The Elephant and the Kangaroo'', a novel in which a repetition of [[Noah's Flood]] occurs in Ireland.<ref name="bs" />

In the early 1950s, he published two non-fiction books. ''The Age of Scandal'' (1950) is a collection of essays about 18th-century England. ''The Goshawk'' (1951) is an account of his attempt to train a [[northern goshawk]] using traditional rather than modern falconry techniques.<ref name="Jameson">{{cite journal|last=Jameson|first=Conor|date=January 2014|title=A place for the misfit|journal=British Birds|volume=107|issue=1|pages=2–3|issn=0007-0335}}</ref> He wrote it at his cottage in the mid-1930s, but he did not publish it until his agent [[David Garnett]] discovered it and insisted that it be published.<ref name="Jameson" /> In 1954, White translated and edited ''The Book of Beasts'', an English translation of a medieval [[bestiary]] written in Latin.

In 1958, White completed the fourth book of ''The Once and Future King'', ''[[The Candle in the Wind]]'', which was first published with the other three parts and has never been published separately. White lived to see his Arthurian work adapted as the Broadway musical ''[[Camelot (musical)|Camelot]]'' (1960) and the animated film ''[[The Sword in the Stone (1963 film)|The Sword in the Stone]]'' (1963).
