Description
Only the Penguin Books author-biography pages for J. Meade Falkner's The Lost Stradivarius (1895) are present here, so the novel itself does not appear. The biography describes Falkner, born in 1858 and educated at Marlborough and Hertford College, Oxford, as both scholar and captain of industry. He rose at the Armstrong-Whitworth firm to chairman from 1915 to 1920, studied manuscripts in the Vatican Library, collected missals, and died at Durham in 1932. His other novels named are The Nebuly Coat and Moonfleet.
