Jonathan Lunn is a pseudonym of Daniel Hall who was born in London and started writing at the age of fifteen. He studied history at the University of Leicester, where he became involved in politics. He worked for six years as a spin doctor in local government, but decided to leave politics behind and concentrate on his writing and now lives in Bristol.
He has written a series of books about the adventures of Kit Killigrew RN which begins in 1847 and is therefore at the end of the sailing era.
