John Buchan

John Buchan was a Scottish diplomat, barrister, journalist, historian, poet and novelist. He published nearly 30 novels and seven collections of short stories. He was born in Perth, an eldest son, and studied at Glasgow and Oxford. In 1901 he became a barrister of the Middle Temple and a private secretary to the High Commissioner for South Africa. In 1907 he married Susan Charlotte Grosvenor and they subsequently had four children. After spells as a war correspondent, Lloyd George's Director of Information and Conservative MP, Buchan moved to Canada in 1935. He served as Governor General there until his death in 1940. Hew Strachan is Chichele Professor of the History of War at the University of Oxford; his research interests include military history from the 18th century to date, including contemporary strategic studies, but with particular interest in the First World War and in the history of the British Army.

    I resad and enjoyed this series when I was young, but I must admit I remember it only vaguely. It involves the romantic old writer Dickson McCann and two young men (the slum schoolboys of Huntingtower) who frustrate an attempt by the Republican faction of the MIteleuropan nation of Evallonia to capture Prince John, the pretender to the throne.

    4/5
    Another fun little romp with retired grocer Dickson McCunn and 2 of the now grown up lads from Huntingtower as they once again stumble across an incident of international intrigue in the Scottish countryside. There are slow moments here and there, and the Scottish dialogue can certainly be tedious if trying to have a quick enjoyable read......there is nothing quick, for me, at least, in trying to decipher what is being said in Scottish dialect. Fortunately, there is not too much of it. And as the adventure comes to its conclusion, it does get rather exciting. Just some fun in Scotland involving an old castle with some unique characters.....I'll probably follow up soon with the third and final of this series by Buchan.
