Thomas Colley Grattan was een Ierse schrijver wiens werk werd gekenmerkt door reisverhalende elementen en literaire essays. Zijn vroege geschriften omvatten poëzie en kritische essays voor vooraanstaande Britse periodieken. Grattan verwierf faam door zijn reisverhalen, die de sfeer van Europese steden en landschappen vastlegden. Later produceerde hij ook historische romans en commentaren op Europese aangelegenheden. Zijn literaire nalatenschap ligt in zijn scherpe observatievermogen en zijn vermogen om persoonlijke ervaringen met culturele context te verbinden.
