Autor

George Herbert Ely (1866-1958) and Charles James L'Estrange (1867-1947), two English writers who worked together on several children's adventure books, wrote under the pen name Herbert Strang. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the pair contributed to the boys' fiction genre with a variety of books written under the collective pen name Herbert Strang. Charles James L'Estrange was born in Hampstead, London, on November 6, 1867, and George Herbert Ely was born in India on October 24, 1866. They were both students at London's Dulwich College. Young readers were drawn to Herbert Strang's adventure stories because they frequently dealt with themes of bravery, patriotism, and discovery. By using a pseudonym, the writers were able to continue building a steady reputation for themselves in the boys' literature market while producing a large body of work. They have several popular series, such as "The Adventure Series," "The Airship Boys Series," and "The Marooner's Island Series." The books added to the canon of young reader adventure fiction because of their captivating characters and thrilling stories.
