James Augustus St. John (1795-1875) was a British journalist, author and traveller.  Born in Wales, the son of a shoemaker, he began his career as a journalist writing for various newspapers in London. He lived some years on the Continent. His books, Journal of a Residence in Normandy and Lives of Celebrated Travellers (3 vols.) were published in 1830. In 1832 he visited Egypt and Nubia, resulting in travel books, published under the titles, Egypt and Mohammed Ali, or Travels in the Valley of the Nile (2 vols., 1834), Egypt and Nubia (1844), and Isis, an Egyptian Pilgrimage (2 vols., 1853). Returning to London, he wrote for the Daily Telegraph under the pseudonym of Greville Brooke and wrote numerous books of history and biography, including a 1868 biography of Sir Walter Raleigh, based on his researches in Madrid and elsewhere.
