About the author
Born in 1863 and active as a historian, editor, and author, he is best known for popular history books on England, the Tudors, and the British Empire. Library and public-domain records consistently identify him as Arthur D. Innes, with the full name Arthur Donald Innes, and date his life from 1863 to 1938.
His books include England under the Tudors, A History of England and the British Empire, Ten Tudor Statesmen, and A General Sketch of Political History from the Earliest Times. Taken together, they show a writer deeply interested in political history and in explaining large historical movements clearly for ordinary readers.
Surviving catalog and archive records also describe him as an editor as well as a historian. A readily verified portrait was not available from the sources checked, but his published work remains widely preserved in major digital libraries and public-domain collections.
