Patrick O'Brian

Richard Patrick Russ, under the Irish pseudonym, Partick O’Brian was a British writer, biographer and translator.

Born in Chalfont St Peter, Buckighamshire, in 1914, he moved to Collioure with his second wife, Mary, after the Second World War in 1949.

In 1969 he published the now well-known Master and Commander, which would go on to be the first of a 20-novel series set during the Napoleonic War.

O’Brian worked on this series until his death in 2000. He and Mary are both buried in Collioure.
