About the author

Lady Sarah Davison Nicolas

A little-known 19th-century English writer, she is remembered for The Cairn: A Gathering of Precious Stones from Many Hands, a reflective collection first published in the 1840s. The surviving record is sparse, which gives her work an added sense of quiet mystery.
