About the author
Frank Scudamore (1859–1939), sometimes listed as Francis Scudamore, was a British journalist and author best known as a war correspondent for The Times and The Daily News. Library and reference records connect him with A Sheaf of Memories (1925), a book that looks back on episodes such as the Greco-Turkish War, Omdurman, Egypt, and life among fellow correspondents.
His career appears to have been built on firsthand reporting from places under strain or in transition. That background helps explain the direct, practical tone associated with his writing: it comes from someone used to watching events closely and sending clear accounts home.
Scudamore also appears as a contributor to other works linked to military and international affairs, including The Great War of 189- and a wartime phrase booklet prepared for soldiers. A confirmed portrait image was not available from the sources reviewed in this session, so none is included here.
