Sinclair Kennedy (1875-1947) was born in Roxbury, MA to George Golding Kennedy and Harriet White (Harris) Kennedy. In 1897 he graduated from Harvard College and in 1906 from Harvard Law School. A man of private means, he spent his life traveling, writing, and lecturing. He advocated including the USA in a federation of the English-speaking world, and in 1914 published The Pan-Angles: A Consideration of the Federation of the Seven English-Speaking Nations , which was well-reviewed in the political science literature at the time, and well known in international politics circles. He later wrote Why Federate? on the same topic.
