Robin Quinn is an author and radio producer based in South-East England. His new book, The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo explores the life of Charles Deville Wells, fraudster and gambler, and spans the second half of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century. The book is scheduled for publication in September 2016 by The History Press Ltd.

His first book, Hitler's Last Army was released in January 2015 and has been well-received by readers and critics, with several five-star reviews on Amazon to date. In May 2015 The Independent newspaper invited him to contribute a three-page feature describing the experiences of German prisoners in Britain at the time of Germany’s defeat by the Allies. The article marked the 70th anniversary of VE-Day.

As a modern languages graduate, Robin says that his knowledge of French and German unlocked sources of information for both of his books that otherwise he might not have been able to use.

As a broadcaster, he has produced more than sixty programmes for the BBC, covering subjects as diverse as the rock group Queen, the history of blue jeans, and the nostalgic era of the coffee-bar. Programmes with a more general historical theme include the critically-acclaimed Summer of 1940 and The Cuban Missile Crisis. Robin has also written material on family history and other topics for magazines in the UK.
