Kenneth Grahame

Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932) was a Scottish-born writer who spent most of his career as Secretary of the Bank of England—a position that could hardly be further from the idyllic riverbanks of his imagination. The Wind in the Willows began as bedtime stories told to his son Alastair, then continued in letters before becoming the novel published in 1908.
