You might be confusing him with J.T. Trelawny, an American writer who wrote historical fiction, including the book "The Adventures of a Younger Son."
It's possible you're also thinking of Edward John Trelawny, a different historical figure who was an English adventurer, writer, and friend of Shelley and Lord Byron. He wrote several books, including:
* "Adventures of a Younger Son" (1831) - a fictionalized autobiography
* "Recollections of the Last Days of Shelley and Byron" (1858) - a memoir
* "The Life and Adventures of a Younger Son" (1876) - an updated version of his earlier book
* "Records of Byron, Shelley and Their Circle" (1887) - a collection of letters and other documents
It's important to distinguish between these different individuals to avoid confusion.
