This article appears in Volume V25, Page 869 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SOU-STE
STEEVENS, GEORGE WARRINGTON (1869-1900) , English journalist, was born at Sydenham, near London, on the loth of December 1869, and was educated at the City of London School and Balliol College, Oxford, of which he was a scholar. He first began to write in undergraduate
periodicals
 . In 1893 he was elected a fellow of Pembroke College, Oxford, and in the same year spent some time at
Cambridge
 , editing a weekly periodical, the
Cambridge
  Observer, and becoming a contributor to the National Observer, then edited by Mr W. E. Henley. He then married and went to London, and joined the staff of the
Pall
  Mall
Gazette
 , contributing also to the New Review and Blackwood's Magazine. Some of his articles were reprinted in Monologues of the Dead. In 1896 he joined the staff of the London Daily Mail, then just started, and went on various
special
  missions for that
paper
 , which resulted in more than one
series
  of articles, afterwards turned into books. In this way he published The Land of the Dollar (1897), With the Conquering Turk (1897), Egypt in 1898, and With Kitchener to Khartoum (1899). In September 1899 he went to South Africa and joined Sir George White's force in
Natal
  as war-correspondent, being subsequently besieged in Ladysmith. He died during the siege, of enteric fever, on the 15th of January 'coo. The articles he had sent home from South Africa were published posthumously in a volume called From Capetown to Ladysmith,
Steevens
  had a remarkable
gift
  of seizing the salient facts and principal characteristics in anything he wished to describe, and putting them in a vivid and readable way. His early death removed an interesting personality in English journalism.
