Autorenporträt
George Alfred Henty, commonly known as G.A. Henty, was a prolific 19th-century English novelist and war correspondent. Born on December 8, 1832, in Trumpington, near Cambridge, Henty had a diverse career before becoming an author, including serving in the Crimean War as a correspondent for the Standard newspaper. Henty's literary legacy largely comprises historical adventure stories for young readers, where he combined his keen interest in history with his experiences as a correspondent to transport readers to various historical epochs. 'By England's Aid; Or, the Freeing of the Netherlands, 1585-1604' is one such work that exemplifies Henty's ability to blend fact with fiction in a narrative that not only entertains but educates its audience about the Dutch struggle for independence from Spanish rule. Henty's style is characterized by meticulous historical detail and a penchant for creating young, brave, and resourceful protagonists who often take part in notable historical events. In his lifetime, Henty penned over 70 books, fostering a love of history amongst his readers and influencing the adventure genre. His work reflects the values of his time, including themes of imperialism and bravery. Henty passed away on November 16, 1902, leaving a lasting impact on literature for young adults.
