He was born in Edgbaston, Birmingham, and educated at Balliol College, Oxford. After leaving Oxford, he pursued writing as his primary career, navigating the changing literary landscapes of his time.

The book embodies the adventures and mishaps of siblings, contributing to the tradition of children's literature with an endearing touch of escapism and fantasy. Jepson was versatile in his literary pursuits and was also involved in the editing of journals such as Vanity Fair. He engaged with contemporary literary figures like Ford Madox Ford and contributed to the development of the genre known as 'invasion literature' with his novel 'The Raid of The Motor-Boat.'
