John Masters, born 26 October 1914 in Calcutta India, was without
doubt a product of the British Empire, as was. These influences and experiences
can be found throughout his work. As well as being entertaining and best selling
novels they also showed a great deal of insight in regard to the characters and
native people. The books though not as well known amongst readers as perhaps
they once were, are still desired by collectors. The advent of the internet and
greater access to books has reduced their value a little but they are worth
something, unlike many books today! It is not too ambitious a thought to put
together a full set of 1st editions in dust jackets, with many of the jackets
showing great designs they would also make an attractive set.
