weitere InformationBuchanan was the third son of John Buchanan of Dowanhill, merchant of Glasgow, and Jane, daughter of John Young, merchant of Glasgow.
Educated at Glasgow High School, Sherborne, and Balliol College, Oxford, he became a Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford in 1871, a barrister of the Inner Temple in 1873, Member of Parliament for Edinburgh 1881 1892, for East Aberdeenshire 1892 1900 and for East Perthshire 1903 1910. He was Financial Secretary to the War Office 1905 1908 and under-secretary for India 1908 1909. In his political career Buchanan was affected more than most by the vicissitudes the Liberal Party experienced at this time. The peak of Buchanan's career was his period as parliamentary under-secretary for India, an office he held from April 1908 until June 1909 when illness forced him to resign.
