About the Author

"Montague Rhodes James OM FBA (1 August 1862 - 12 June 1936) was an English author, medievalist scholar and provost of King's College, Cambridge (1905-1918), and of Eton College (1918-1936).M. R. James is best remembered for his ghost stories, which some consider among the best in the genre. One of James's most important achievements was to redefine the ghost story for the new century by dispensing with many of the formal gothic trappings of his predecessors and replacing them with more realistic contemporary settings. Because his protagonists and plots tend to reflect his own antiquarian interests, he is known as the originator of the ""antiquarian ghost story""."
