Sir Philip Armand Hamilton Gibbs KBE (1877-1962), was an English journalist and prolific author of books who served as one of five official British reporters during the First World War. In 1937 Sir Philip Gibbs was a novelist famous enough to be included in Wills's set of modern British authors cigarette cards. Today he seems to be completely forgotten, though there are historians who still speak highly of his work as a war correspondent. Quite a scarce book.
