Biographie de l'auteur

Sydney Hurst Gladstone Brown was born in London, England, on 30 September 1926. After completing an early education at an young age, the Second World War shaped much of his informal learning. He trained as a machinist for aircraft engine parts and this later led to a hobby of repairing and rebuilding English sports cars such as the MGa. An aptitude to roller skating led to ice skating, a short career as a principal skater in Holiday on Ice and, eventually to teaching figure skating which he did in England and then in Canada where he also worked as a machinist. Upon retirement, he embarked on a lifelong urge to become a novelist; thus the trilogy of stories, of which Ben is the premier, was conceived. Taken from his interest in the wild west from childhood and influenced by his travels as an ice skating show performer, the basis of Ben was formed. Sadly, Syd suddenly passed away on 31 May 2004 shortly after completion of the first book of the trilogy. Syd's closest friend took it upon himself to see this story edited and into publication, and for that we know he would want us to thank George Loucks so very, very much. Ken and Jason Brown
