Channing Arnold

Channing Arnold, usually referred to as Channing Arnold, was the pen name of William Channing Arnold (1869–1938), an English journalist and writer. He was the son of Sir Edwin Arnold, and modern catalog and reference sources consistently identify him as a journalist as well as an author.

He wrote both reportage and books, including travel writing such as The American Egypt, co-written with Frederick J. Tabor Frost. Reference sources also note that he contributed articles to the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica, which fits his reputation as a writer comfortable moving between journalism, commentary, and longer-form nonfiction.

Some records connected with his career show how closely his writing was tied to public life and controversy, including parliamentary references to his time as editor of the Burma Critic.
