The life of Fred Merrick White unfolds against a backdrop of personal and historical upheaval. Initially following his father's legal path, he transitioned to writing after his father's imprisonment in the late 1880s. By the 1890s, White had become a successful author, known for his imaginative tales that often incorporated scientific elements. His experiences during World War I, particularly the service of his sons, deeply influenced his work, leading to poignant reflections on the war's impact on society. He spent his later years in Devon, where he continued to write until his death in 1935.
