Ralph Anthony Durand was an award-winning writer of novels, short stories and non-fiction. Much of his early writing was inspired by his travels in Australia and Africa. He served in the Boer War and World War I and was the librarian of the Priaulx Library between 1929 and 1945. He is best remembered for his works of non-fiction, particularly Guernsey Under German Rule, a first hand account of the German occupation of the Channel Islands during World War II.
