E.D.E.N. Southworth wrote more novels than Hawthorne, Melville, and Twain combined and readers adored her feisty heroines. She wrote about taboo topics for the 19th century--alcoholism, domestic violence, poverty, and more--and encouraged generations of her readers to challenge the status quo. The story of her fascinating life went untold until now.

Autorenporträt
After more than twelve years of researching American author E.D.E.N. Southworth, Rose Neal, PhD, is one of the preeminent scholars on the author's work and life. In 2012, she finished her master's thesis on Southworth before embarking on a doctorate in literature from Swansea University in Wales, where she successfully defended her dissertation on Southworth's impact on female education. Dr. Neal has also presented numerous academic papers about the author at professional conferences and libraries. While researching and writing about Southworth's fifty-plus novels, Dr. Neal also discovered that the novelist lived a fascinating life that spanned most of the nineteenth century-a story that Dr. Neal believed needed to be told. After a twenty-plus-year career in teaching, both at the high school and university levels, Dr. Neal retired and is now devoting herself full-time to a second career as a writer. In addition to her love of research and storytelling, she enjoys traveling with her husband, Chris, and spending time in her garden. She lives in Edmond, Oklahoma.
