About the authors

G. Lathom (George Lathom) Browne

1815–1892

A prolific Victorian writer, editor, and translator, he moved easily between boys’ adventure stories, historical fiction, and retellings of classic legends. His books often blend brisk storytelling with a strong taste for the romantic and heroic past.
