Paperback / softback

Description

Ernest William Hornung (1866 - 1921) was an English author and poet known for writing the A.

J. Raffles series of stories about a gentleman thief in late 19th-century London.

Hornung was educated at Uppingham School; as a result of poor health he left the school in December 1883 to travel to Sydney, where he stayed for two years.

He drew on his Australian experiences as a background when he began writing, initially short stories and later novels.

Aside from his Raffles stories, Hornung was a prodigious writer of fiction, publishing numerous books from 1890, with A Bride from the Bush to his 1914 novel The Crime Doctor.
