At the risk of drifting OT, it was in fact RIB he was being groomed to take on, according to Phil Freeman. With C's death in 1915, then Haverfield's in 1919, it passed to Collingwood who eventually fell ill and it was left to Wright to finish. This and much much more is covered in the forthcoming The Best Training-Ground for Archaeologists by P.W.M. Freeman (shameless plug).
Curiously, amazon.co.uk has the Auxilia as written by one L.G. Cheeseman. Is nothing sacred?
