George Malcolm Young, CB, was an English historian, best known for his book on Victorian times in Britain, Portrait of an Age (1936). After a brief stint as an academic and a more than 20-year career as a civil servant, Young began to pursue a literary career in the mid-1920s. His books include studies of Edward Gibbon (1932), Charles I and Oliver Cromwell (1935), and Stanley Baldwin (1952) and the published texts of his lectures on literary and political topics.
