Surtees (1803-1864), the noted English novelist and sporting writer, helped to found the New Sporting Magazine and contributed writings that were later to become part of his Jorrocks's series. Surtees is best remembered for Jorrocks's Jaunts and Jollities, a humorous narrative of the sporting experiences of a cockney grocer, which suggested the more famous Pickwick Papers of Charles Dickens.
