Novelist. He was popular during the 1890's for his historical romances set in fictitious South-Eastern European country of Ruritania, of which "The Prisoner of Zenda" (1894) is the best remembered. Hope was born in London and educated at Oxford, where he trained as a lawyer. He practised until 1894, when he started writing full time after the success of his work. During the First World War he produced propaganda for the Ministry of Information, for which he was knighted. (bio by: Bunny Boiler)
