His novel The Red Spell (1895) was about the Paris Commune. His most significant novel is The Pillar of Cloud (1906) about a boarding-house for women who plot to escape the service life. It is not considered a feminist novel but it does emphasize a female community and the idea that women should not depend too much upon men. He also wrote travel books and biographies, among these, The Love Affairs of Lord Byron (1910), The Life of Emperor Francis Joseph (1914) and The Romantic Life of Shelley (1911). He was held at the Ruhleben internment camp during World War I. When he returned to London he reported that Germany was in danger of famine. (en)
