Literally a child of this century, Sir Victor (he was knighted in 1975) turned out pithy, highly polished prose in a variety of genres, including travel writing, memoirs (A Cab at the Door, 1968), biographies, novels (Dead Man Leading, 1937) and numerous collections of literary criticism and short stories.
