Notice biographique
Albert Ewart Prince was born in the late 1800's in Leigh, England. He studied in England at Manchester, taking a M.A. in history, and also at Balliol College, Oxford. He joined the Department of History at Queen's University, Kingston as a lecturer in 1914 but quickly took a leave of absence for the next four years in order to join the British Army's military effort in World War I. Prince attained the level of Captain in the Manchester Regiment having served in Gallipoli, Egypt and Palestine. He remained in Palestine for one year after the war helping to conclude the business of the military administration. Prince returned to Queen's University after the war, becoming an Assistant Professor in 1920, an Associate Professor in 1924, and a full Professor in 1934. He published articles concerning the Middle East in the Yale Review, Queen's Quarterly and Saturday Night Magazine, as well as a number of articles in various Queen's publications.
A.E. Prince married Beatrice Schalburg in 1924. They had four children together, as well as two by her previous marriage. Much of Prince's leisure time was given, as a patron, to the music and arts community.
A. E. Prince died on 18 September 1947.
