"Over There" with the Australians |
R. Hugh Knyvett ( - 1918) |
This account should be taken with a grain of salt.
Knyvett received a fine tribute from Roosevelt, who called him a "Modern Galahad".
"No man", he wrote in the Independent, "could look at his face and not see that he combined, as few men do, the daring and the iron courage of the born fighter,
with the singularly gentle and lofty idealism, the same intensity of spirit which made him so formidable a foe in personal combat, also made him one of the most
convincing and effective speakers who ever stirred to action souls that had been but half awake."

The Broad Highway |
Jeffery Farnol (1878 - 1952) |
Publishers Weekly #1 Best Seller for 1911.
Farnol developed the Regency Romance genre. Books in this style invoked the literature and language of the English Regency period, more or less around the time of the Napoleonic wars and the French revolution.
Farnol's first novel, a swashbuckling story of the highroads of Kent in the Regency era, is still regarded as a classic and catapulted him to fame.
