Sir Alistair Allan Horne CBE FRSL (9 November 1925 – 25 May 2017) was a British journalist, biographer and historian, especially of 19th and 20th century France. He wrote more than 20 books on history, and biography. He was the official biographer of British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. The Price of Glory: Verdun 1916 received the Hawthornden Prize in 1963. Horne's 1977 book A Savage War of Peace: Algeria 1954–1962 received the Wolfson Prize in 1978. A Savage War of Peace: Algeria 1954–1962 came to be of much interest to military officers, having been recommended to President George W. Bush by Kissinger. Horne was offered the authorship of former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger's official biography but declined due to the daunting amount of work involved and his age and opted instead to write a volume on one year in Kissinger's life (Kissinger: 1973, The Crucial Year).
