William Le Queux

Portrait by [[E. O. Hoppé]], 1922 William Tufnell Le Queux ( , ; 2 July 1864 – 13 October 1927) was an Anglo-French journalist and writer. He was also a diplomat (honorary consul for San Marino), a traveller (in Europe, the Balkans and North Africa), a flying buff who officiated at the first British air meeting at Doncaster in 1909, and a wireless pioneer who broadcast music from his own station long before radio was generally available; his claims regarding his own abilities and exploits, however, were usually exaggerated. His best-known works are the anti-French and anti-Russian invasion fantasy ''The Great War in England in 1897'' (1894) and the anti-German invasion fantasy ''The Invasion of 1910'' (1906), the latter becoming a bestseller.
