Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Henry David Inglis was a Scottish travel writer and journalist who wrote under the pseudonym Derwent Conway. Born in Edinburgh in 1795, Inglis was the only son of a Scottish advocate and was originally educated for a business career. His passion for travel soon led him abroad, where he began documenting his experiences. For a brief period before 1830, he worked as editor of a local newspaper in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, before embarking on more foreign journeys. In 1832, he edited The British Critic, a newspaper in Jersey, where he stayed for two years. Later, he moved to London and contributed to The New Monthly Magazine, producing works such as Rambles in the Footsteps of Don Quixote, illustrated by George Cruikshank. Inglis published several travel narratives including Tales of the Ardennes, Solitary Walks through Many Lands, and Spain in 1830. He also explored topics like phrenology and wrote a novel portraying social life in Spain. His works were widely read and cited, including his account of Ireland which gained recognition in parliamentary discussions. He passed away in 1835 at his home in Regent's Park.
