Fred M. White - The Romance of the Secret Service Funds: "It's the toughest job you ever had"

Meer over het boek

The life of Fred Merrick White, born in 1859, reflects a remarkable journey from a solicitor's clerk to a prolific author. After his father's imprisonment in the late 1880s, White shifted his focus to writing, achieving success as a journalist and novelist. His works often featured imaginative science and adventurous plots, influenced by the societal changes following World War I, during which both his sons served. White's later years in Barnstaple inspired several novels, and he continued to write until his death in 1935.
