S.R.Crockett (1859-1914) is now dubbed 'Scotland's Forgotten Bestseller.'  He was a bestselling author from the 1890's up till his death in 1914. He wrote primarily serial fiction for a range of periodicals and magazines and had 67 works published as well as numerous articles and short stories now long out of print. 

A native of Galloway, he travelled extensively throughout Europe and wrote fiction set both at home and abroad across a broad historical period from 15th century to his own contemporary times. 

He wrote in the Scottish romance tradition passed down by Scott and Stevenson and was contemporary with Conan Doyle and J.M.Barrie. He suffered under the modernist mis-categorisation as 'Kailyard' but his unique blend of history, adventure and romance makes his work both interesting and accessible for the modern reader.
