Philip Lindsay (30 April 1906 – 4 January 1958)[1] was an Australian writer, who mostly wrote historical novels.
He was educated at the Anglican Church Grammar School in Brisbane,[2] and emigrated to England in 1929.
Most of his novels were written whilst he lived in England.
His novels often treated his subject matter in a dark fashion, with his central characters depicted as brooding, depressed, or disturbed characters.
He was one of a team of writers on Song of Freedom and Under the Red Robe, and was a technical advisor on The Private Life of Henry VIII.
