He was also the younger brother of Wilhelm Schauman . Life Ossian Schauman was born on 30 March 1862 in Jakobstad to the pharmacist and businessman Victor Schauman and his wife Elise Wilhelmina Schauman n e Ekelund , who had 13 children in total. The father died of heart failure before the age of 50, when Ossian Schaumen was only 10 years old. There seems to have been a genetic heart defect running in the family, since both Ossian Schauman and several of his brothers also died before they had turned 60 years old. He displayed an interest in botany already at an early age, and could often be found tending to plants in the garden. In 1872 Ossian Schauman was admitted to the Wasa Lyceum high school at the age of 10. This was also the year in which his father died, which devastated Ossian and the rest of the family. When Schauman graduates from the high school in 1879 at the age of 17, he moves to Helsinki to continue his studies at the university. In 1888 he graduates with a first medical degree, and in 1894 he becomes an M.D. in internal medicin.

Here is based the mysterious Industrial Corporation of ire which has produced a range of new technologies. Its enigmatic founders are not Irish they settled there and resist all attempts to find out who they are. A young British scientist agrees to be sent as a spy to find out just what is going on. Although labelled as Science Fiction by the publisher, the bulk of the novel owes more to the thriller style of the John Buchan tradition, as the Cambridge hero battles across wild Irish landscapes fighting a series of murderous thugs and secret policemen. The science fiction denouement is confined almost to the last chapter and foreshadows the theme of Hoyle s later A for Andromeda , though in a far more cursory manner. Also of note is the way the young hero seems to come to accept the notion of an authoritarian society ruled by a few self appointed supermen . The link with the legendary Irish hero Ossian is peripheral to the plot and is explained near the end. ref Ossian s Ride, NEL Four Square Science Fiction edition of 1969 ref Reception Galaxy Science Fiction Galaxy reviewer Floyd C. Gale received the novel favorably, saying that Hoyle s craftsmanship has improved tremendously since his first effort he described the novel as a science mystery spy story that has no apparent forebear in the SF repertory. ref ... more details
