Ralph Hewins
Ralph Hewins (1909 – 1985) was a British biographer. Amongst his most famous works are Count Folke Bernadotte: his Life and Work (1949), The Richest American: J. Paul Getty (1960)[1] and the Vidkun Quisling biography Quisling: Prophet without Honour (1965), which was translated into Norwegian in 1966 under the title Quisling: profet uten ære. The biography of Quisling stirred much controversy in Norway, because of its positive portrayal of the Nazi collaborationist Quisling.[2]
