Her name was MARGARET SCOTT, although she was normally known by her married name – MARGARET GATTY.
Her heyday was 1842-1872 during which time she penned some 24 books.
Rather than aiming to entertain or capture her readers’ attention, Margaret’s books were were primarily intended to teach lessons and morals – she was after all married to a curate from Burnham-on-Crouch, where she herself had been born.
Shortly after her marriage she moved with her husband to Sheffield.
If you missed what Margaret said, catch it all here: –
All being well I’ll see you again next week on our regular day, Tuesday,
Scott
