John Buchan

John Buchan was born in Perth. His father was a minister of the Free Church of Scotland; and in 1876 the family moved to Fife where in order to attend the local school the small boy had to walk six miles a day. Later they moved again to the Gorbals in Glasgow and John Buchan went to Hutchesons' Grammar School, Glasgow University (by which time he was already publishing articles in periodicals) and Brasenose College, Oxford. His years at Oxford - 'spent peacefully in an enclave like a monastery' - nevertheless opened up yet more horizons and he published five books and many articles, won several awards including the Newdigate Prize for poetry and gained a First. His career was equally diverse and successful after university and, despite ill-health and continual pain from a duodenal ulcer, he played a prominent part in public life as a barrister and Member of Parliament, in addition to being a writer, soldier and publisher. In 1907 he married Susan Grosvenor, and the marriage was supremely happy. They had one daughter and three sons. He was created Baron Tweedsmuir of Elsfield in 1935 and became the fifteenth Governor-General of Canada, a position he held until his death in 1940. 'I don't think I remember anyone,' wrote G. M. Trevelyan to his widow, 'whose death evoked a more enviable outburst of sorrow, love and admiration.'

Samenvatting

Gildart Jackson reads to you the classic adventure of Richard Hannay—an ordinary Englishman who is “pretty well disgusted with life.” His boredom takes a turn when he finds himself involved in a thrilling race to deliver important intelligence to the British government before German anarchists stop him.

Written by John Buchan as a serial for Blackwood’s Magazine in 1915, The Thirty-Nine Steps would eventually become five full-length books known as The Richard Hannay Series. It would later become the inspiration for the classic Alfred Hitchcock film of the same name.

Gildart Jackson, like John Buchan, is also a British Barrister. Later in life he became an award-winning actor and narrator who has narrated over 300 audiobooks.This audiobook was originally read as part of Gildart’s Fireside Readings - please visit FiresideReading.com to find out more.
