‘THE first time I heard Jim Maitland’s name mentioned was in the bar of a P.&O. We were two days out of Colombo, going East, and when I confessed my complete ignorance of the man a sort of stupefied silence settled on the company. ‘You don’t know Jim?’ murmured an Assam tea-planter. ‘I thought everyone knew Jim.’ ‘Anyway, if you stay in these parts long you soon will, ‘ put in someone else. ‘And once known—never forgotten.’ – H. C. Mc Neile (Sapper)
Herman Cyril Mc Neile (1888-1937), commonly known as H. C. Mc Neile or Sapper, was a British soldier and author. Drawing on his experiences in the trenches during the First World War, he started writing short stories and getting them published in the Daily Mail. After the war Mc Neile left the army and continued writing, although he changed from war stories to thrillers. In 1920 he published Bulldog Drummond, whose eponymous hero became his best-known creation. The character was based on Mc Neile himself, on his friend Gerard Fairlie and on English gentlemen generally. Mc Neile interspersed his Drummond work with other novels and story collections that included two characters who appeared as protagonists in their own works, Jim Maitland and Ronald Standish. Mc Neile’s stories are either directly about the war, or contain people whose lives have been shaped by it. His thrillers are a continuation of his war stories, with upper class Englishmen defending England from foreigners plotting against it.
