About the author
Henry Strother Cautley (1863–1946) was a British barrister, King's Counsel, judge, and Conservative politician. He was educated at Charterhouse School and King's College, Cambridge, later joined the Middle Temple, and built a long career in both law and public life.
He served as Member of Parliament for Leeds East from 1900 to 1906 and then for East Grinstead from January 1910 until 1936. Alongside his political work, he was Recorder of Sunderland from 1918 to 1935. He was created a baronet in 1924 and, on retiring from the House of Commons in 1936, was raised to the peerage as Baron Cautley.
For readers, his main connection to the catalog appears to be as co-author of The Law Relating to Betting, Time-Bargains and Gaming, a legal text listed by Project Gutenberg and other library sources.
