Sir Henry Norman, 1st Baronet, PC (19 September

1858 – 4 June 1939) was an English

journalist

and Liberal politician.

Norman was educated privately in France and at Harvard University, where he

obtained his B.A. For several years he worked on the editorial staff of the Pall Mall

Gazette and later joined the editorial staff of the News

Chronicle, being appointed Assistant Editor of the latter in

1895. He retired from journalism in 1899. During this time he travelled widely

in Canada and the United States and in Russia, Japan, China, Siam, Malaya and

Central Asia. Much of the material included in the two volumes mentioned in the

description was amassed during these tours. He was knighted in 1906 and made a

baronet in 1915. Norman was born in Leicester,

the son of Henry Norman, a merchant and local radical politician. Norman was

educated at Leicester Collegiate School and Grove House School and later studied theology

and philosophy

at Leipzig

and Harvard University. His family were Unitarians

in religion and Norman first embarked in a career as a preacher but he gave up

this calling and his religion on his return to England. In 1891 he married

author Ménie Muriel Dowie (1867–1945) but they

divorced in 1903 on the grounds of her adultery with a family friend, Edward Arthur Fitzgerald.[2] Norman was awarded custody of their

son Henry Nigel

St Valery Norman who was born in 1897. In 1907 he married Florence

Priscilla (‘Fay’) McLaren (1884–1964), the daughter of the wealthy

industrialist and Liberal MP, Sir Charles Benjamin Bright McLaren,

later Lord Aberconway. They had three children. In 1922 he purchased

Ramster

Hall, Chiddingfold, Guildford, Surrey with Lady Norman.
