About the author

George Borrow

1803–1881

A restless Victorian traveler and gifted linguist, he turned years on the road into vivid books that brought Spain, Romani life, and the wider world before English readers. His mix of adventure, curiosity, and sharp observation still gives his writing a lively, personal feel.
