Duncan Campbell-Smith is a former journalist -- with The Financial Times and later The Economist -- whose career has also included working as a banker in the City of London and as a management consultant with McKinsey & Co. He published his first book in 1986, an account of the battle between British Airways and Freddie Laker following the collapse of Laker's Skytrain ('Struggle for Take-Off'). Since becoming a full-time author in 2006 he has written four works of non-fiction on a broad range of subjects. They include an acclaimed history of the British Post Office (‘Masters of the Post’), a profile of Standard Chartered Bank (‘Crossing Continents’) and his biography of Sir Frank Whittle (‘Jet Man’). He read history at Merton College, Oxford where he was a postmaster scholar (no relation to the Post Office) and now lives in the Weald of Kent. www.duncancampbellsmith.com
