About the Author

Mary Johnston (November 21, 1870 – May 9, 1936) was an American novelist and women's rights advocate.

The daughter of an American Civil War soldier who became a successful lawyer, Mary Johnston was born in the small town of Buchanan, Virginia. A small and frail girl, she was educated at home by family and tutors. She grew up with a love of books and was financially independent enough to devote herself to writing.
