Books are the direct reflection of their authors. So much does the personality of their creators enter into them that the reader often wishes to know more of the man or woman behind the book. Because of that almost universal desire I have sketched here the outlines of the life of one we usually hear mentioned in the quaint, prim brevity of an older usage either as "Miss Mulock," or " Mrs. Craik." It is strange that so little biographical record exists of one whose work exerted such an inflence in ther time, and still is known and loved; but the annals of the good, like those of the poor, are usually short and simple.
