Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Hugh Benson (18 November 1871 - 19 October 1914) was an English Roman Catholic priest and writer. In 1903, Benson, a Anglican priest, was received into the Catholic Church; he was ordained a Catholic priest the next year. He was also a prolific writer of fiction, writing the notable dystopian novel Lord of the World, as well as Come Rack! Come Rope!. His output encompassed historical, horror and science fiction, contemporary fiction, children's stories, plays, apologetics, devotional works and articles. He continued his writing career at the same time as he progressed through the hierarchy to become a Chamberlain to Pope Pius X in 1911 and gain the title of Monsignor, before his death a few years later.
