Richard Hopton

Richard Hopton has written three works of non-fiction, the latest being A Reluctant Hero, the biography of Captain Robert Ryder VC, WW2 naval hero, polar explorer, pioneering yachtsman and MP. He has written for Country & Town House since its inception, profiling in that time some of the most influential figures in the British luxury goods industry, as well as a wide variety of other prominent individuals. He has also written and reviewed for a number of other publications, including The Economist, Country Life, The Field and the Financial Times. He is now writing a historical novel set in Sicily in September 1810 and a biography of a Regency rogue, a deliciously improbable mélange of clergyman, newspaper editor, philanderer and duellist.
