John Buchan took a unique path towards being Governor General. A commoner who is credited with inventing the spy thriller literary genre, he would be appointed to the peerage so he could serve as the Governor General. As Governor General, he travelled more than any other viceroy before him, promoted the literary art and, sadly, became the first Governor General to die in office.
