William Montgomerie was a Scottish author and poet whose early life in Glasgow and subsequent travels through Europe significantly shaped his perspective. After his initial schooling, he contributed a natural history column to a Glasgow newspaper, using the earnings to explore Germany and its natural landscapes.

This foundation in both observation and academia likely informed his distinct literary voice.
