d. 1951
Known for stirring patriotic stories and adventure writing, this early 20th-century British author is remembered today mainly through public-domain editions that have kept his work in circulation.
Richard Wilson was a British writer whose books are still preserved in public-domain libraries such as Project Gutenberg. One of the works available there, The Post of Honour: Stories of Daring Deeds Done by Men of the British Empire in the Great War, shows his interest in bravery, empire, and wartime storytelling.
Reliable biographical information about him is limited in the sources I could confirm during this search. Because of that, it is safest to describe him simply as an early 20th-century author whose surviving reputation comes largely from the books that remain accessible online rather than from a well-documented public life.
