This is another item transferred from "Imperial Governor". It should, perhaps, have been the lead post for this thread.

I've just discovered that George Shipway's excellent novel "Imperial Governor" is to be reissued next month. See:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/tg/ ... 04363243/2 \\02-9064700-0599852
I'd really like to write a profile of him, but I'm having great difficulty getting any research leads. I know that he was a cavalry office in the Indian Army, and then a schoolmaster, and that he was encouraged to write by his friend John Masters. If he is still alive he will be 92 by now.
Does anyone know where I can find more about him? I hope that more of his books will be revived.
