George Burgess was a writer of indifferent ability whose primary claim to fame was as the putative biographer of Archimedes and Pythagoras Vavasor. However, he died before the project was complete and the current whereabouts of the unfinished manuscript are uncertain.
Burgess's demise was unusual in that he was stabbed through the neck with a mathematician's compass.
Writing Career
Burgess first became known as the caption writer for a series of special interest magazines such as Busty Farm Girls Weekly and Tales from the Leather Barn. He then progressed to writing features and the occasional celebrity interview.[citation needed]
