George Alfred Henty (1832-1902), referred to as G. A. Henty, was a prolific English novelist, special correspondent, and Imperialist born in Trumpington, England. He is best known for his historical adventure stories that were popular in the late 19th century. His works include: Out on the Pampas (1871), The Young Buglers (1880), With Clive in India (1884) and Wulf the Saxon (1895). He attended Westminster School, London and later Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he was a keen sportsman. Henty once related in an interview how his storytelling skills grew out of tales told after dinner to his children. He wrote his first children's book, Out on the Pampas in 1868, naming the book's main characters after his children.

Rupert Holliday era cresciuto in una casa divisa. Le fortune del colonnello Holliday furono notevolmente compromesse durante la guerra civile. Le sue propriet furono incamerate; e al restauro ricevette la sua casa ancestrale, Windthorpe Chace, e una piccola porzione del dominio circostante, ma non era mai stato in grado di recuperare le propriet periferiche dagli uomini che le avevano acquisite in sua assenza. Si era sposato in Francia, figlia di un esule come lui; ma prima che il "re tornasse a casa sua" sua moglie era morta, ed era tornato con un figlio, Herbert. Herbert, quando arriv all'et adulta, aveva restaurato le fortune del Chace sposando la signora Dorothy Maynard, la figlia ed erede di un ricco birraio di Derby, che si era schierato dalla parte del parlamento e aveva prosperato notevolmente a spese del monarchico nobilt del quartiere. Dopo il restauro lui, come molte altre teste rotonde che si erano arricchite con l'acquisizione di propriet incamerate, si sentiva molto dubbioso se gli fosse permesso di mantenere il possesso, ed era abbastanza contento di assicurare la fortuna di sua figlia sposandola con l'erede di un importante realista. Il colonnello Holliday si era inizialmente opposto con forza alla partita, ma alla fine il probabile vantaggio per la fortuna della sua casa prevalse sul suo pregiudizio politico. La fortuna che Mistress Dorothy port alla famiglia fu alla fine molto pi piccola di quanto ci si aspettasse, poich molti dei proprietari di tenute di cui il birraio tondo era diventato posseduto, sostenevano le loro pretese nei loro confronti.
