Autorenporträt

Alice Morse Earle (April 27, 1851 February 16, 1911) was a Worcester, Massachusetts-born American historian and author. Her parents, Edwin Morse and Abby Mason Clary, named her Mary Alice. She married Henry Earle of New York City on April 15, 1874, and they had four children, including the botanical illustrator Alice Clary Earle Hyde. Her name was altered from Mary Alice Morse to Alice Morse Earle. Beginning in 1890, her publications focused on little sociological aspects rather than large issues, making them essential to current social historians. She published several novels about colonial America (particularly the New England region), including Curious Punishments of Bygone Days.
