Valentine Williams(bornGeorge Valentine Williams, 1883 1946) was an English journalist and writer of popular fiction. He was the eldest son of the chief editor atReuters; both his brother and an uncle were also journalists. He replacedAustin Harrisonas the Reuters correspondent inBerlinin 1905, aged 21. In 1908, he left Reuters to join theDaily Mail,[2]filing stories from Paris and covering thePortuguese revolution of 1910. He was in theBalkansat the outbreak ofWorld War Iand became one of the first accreditedwar correspondentsin March 1915.[3]William Beach Thomashad been reporting the war for theDaily Mailin the period before official accreditations were granted. When the British government relented its opposition to the presence of journalists in 1915, having been warned byTheodore Rooseveltthat reporting limitations were affecting public opinion in the United States, Williams stepped into the role.[4][5]In December 1915, Williams enlisted for service in theIrish Guardsand Beach Thomas took his place as an accredited reporter in France. Williams was awarded theMilitary Crossas a soldier and wrote two autobiographical books about his war-time experiences. In the aftermath of war, he travelled widely as a reporter, covering events such as theVersailles Peace Conferenceand the discovery of the tomb ofTutankhamen, as well as events in America.Harold Nicolsonmet him in connection with events at Versailles and described in a diary entry that "He is far too intelligent to be employed by such a paper" (theDaily Mail).[6]It was during this period that he began writingthrillers[3]and around 1926 he gave up his post as Foreign Editor of theDaily Mailto pursue a full-time career as an author.[1]Williams was too old for active service at the outbreak ofWorld War II. He joined theSecret Intelligence Service, vetting potential new recruits such asMalcolm MuggeridgeandKim Philby.[a]He was transferred to the British Embassy in Washington in 1941 but soon after left for Hollywood, where he worked as a scriptwriter forTwentieth-Century FoxandMetro-Goldwyn Mayer.[3]Williams was married to Alice Crawford. He died in 1946. (Wikipedia) First Edition with matching dates of 1934 on the title and copyright pages.
