Edward Payson Roe (1838–1888) was an American novelist, known for his works of fiction that combined pastoral American landscapes with moral Christian themes. Born in Moodna, Orange County, New York, Roe was initially drawn to ministry and served as a chaplain in the Union Army during the American Civil War. The war's profound impact on him is evident through his writing, which often reflected the reconciliation and human connection in postbellum America. Following his military service, Roe took up pastoral work before embarking on a full-time literary career.

Roe's literary style made him a household name in his day, and his works continue to be a subject of study for enthusiasts of historical and religious fiction.
