Autorenporträt

John Charles Dent was a Canadian journalist, novelist, and historian. Dent has been compared to American historian Francis Parkman for his ability to write about Canadian history without seeming dull or dry. He was born in Kendal, Westmorland, England. His family moved to the Canadian West soon after he was born. Dent completed his early education at Canadian schools, then studied law in Brantford, Ontario, before becoming an attorney in 1865. He practiced law for a few years before realizing it was not for him and decided to pursue literary endeavors instead. As a result, he gave up his practice as soon as he felt comfortable doing so and traveled to England. He honed his journalism skills while working for The Daily Telegraph. He has written a number of articles to the magazine Once a Week. He supported his wife and family as a writer, focusing on work that could be rapidly completed and sold. As a result, Dent did not make any particularly ambitious works in England.
