Autorenporträt
John Buchan (1875-1940) was a Scottish author, publisher, journalist, biographer, historian, mountaineer, and politician. His Presbyterian upbringing as the son of a manse, and his classical Oxford education made him one of the most popular twentieth-century prose stylists. He invented the modern thriller, and his novels of Richard Hannay and Edward Leithen were beloved for their tweedy, upper-class settings, thrilling chases and reliable readability. He died in 1940 as Governor-General of Canada.
