Alec Waugh (1898-1981) was a United kingdom novelist delivered in London and informed at Sherborne General public Institution, Dorset. Waugh's first novel, The Loom of Junior (1917), is a semi-autobiographical consideration of public-school life that brought on some controversy at that time and led to his expulsion. Waugh was the only boy ever before to be expelled in the Old Shirburnian World. Despite arranging this record, Waugh continued to become the successful author of over 50 works, and resided in many spectacular places throughout his life which later became the configurations for some of his texts. He was also a known wines connoisseur and campaigned to make the cocktail party a normal feature of 1920s public life.
