About The Author:
John Lang(19th December,1816 to 20th August,1864) was an Australian lawyer and was Australia's first native born novelist.
Lang became a journalist and in 1845 established a paper,the Mofussilite,at Meerut.He also wrote some novels which appeared serially in the Mofussilite and in Fraser's Magazine.These began to be published in book form in 1853,The Wetherbys and Too Clever by Half both 1853,followed by Too Much Alike(1854),The Forger's Wife(1855,said to be the first English-language detective novel),Captain Macdonald(1856),Will He Marry Her(1858),The Ex-Wife(1858),My Friend's Wife(1859),The Secret Police (1859),and Botany Bay;or True Stories of the Early Days of Australia(1859).Some of these were very popular and were often reprinted,the twelfth edition of Too Clever by Half appearing in 1878.Botany Bay has been reprinted several times, sometimes under the titles of Clever Criminals,or Remarkable Convicts.Fisher's Ghost reprints 10 of the 13 stories of Botany Bay.Lang also published Geraldine,A Ballad in 1854,and in 1859 Wanderings in India and other Sketches reprinted from Household Words.Lang visited London in 1859,and was for a short time at Calcutta where he issued the Optimist.Lang died in the hill station of Mussoorie,India,and is buried in Camel's Back Cemetery,which enjoys a wide vista of the Lower Western Himalaya,which Lang loved greatly.His grave had been lost for almost a century until it was sought out and discovered by the writer Ruskin Bond.
