About the author
Jeffery Farnol, born in 1878 in Birmingham, England, was an English author renowned for his many romantic novels set in a nostalgically-evoked Georgian or Regency era. Farnol's literary career blossomed with his first book, 'The Broad Highway' (1910), which became a runaway success, establishing his reputation as a master of romantic historical fiction. His narrative style is characterized by a combination of adventure, humor, and romance, typically featuring gentlemen heroes and spirited heroines. Farnol continued to publish prolifically throughout his life, with 'The Definite Object' (1917) being one of his notable works. This particular novel is perfect evidence of Farnol's skill in weaving complex tales of chivalry and romance interspersed with action. Not only did it enthrall readers during his time, but it also added to his lasting legacy as an author who could paint vivid images of the past and instill in them a dynamic and entertaining storyline. Farnol's charm lay in his idealized depiction of bygone eras that, while lacking historical precision, delighted readers with their escapism. His contribution to the genre earned him a devoted early 20th-century following and his books, over thirty in number, have been enjoyed by multiple generations of readers. Farnol passed away in 1952, but left behind a legacy as one of the significant contributors to historical romance literature.
