Eighth-century martyr St Boniface, tennis player and TV
presenter Sue Barker, painter Sir Joshua Reynolds,
scholar Sir Thomas Bodley, actor Sir Donald Sinden, Boer
War commander Sir Redvers Buller, radio and TV presenter
Ed Stewart and round-the-world yachtsman Sir Francis
Chichester are among personalities through the ages who
have been born in Devon. The county can claim many more
who were either born or lived here for a major part of
their lives, including Scott of the Antarctica, Agatha
Christie, Parson Jack Russell (of terrier fame) and Wayne
Sleep. The Elizabethan explorers Sir Francis Drake, Sir
Humphrey Gilbert and Sir Walter Raleigh were all
Devonians, as were party leaders Michael Foot and David
Owen. This book, by renowned local author John Van der
Kiste, features mini-biographies of all these and many
more.
