About the author
Born Alice Muriel Livingston on October 8, 1858, A. M. Williamson was an American-English author who published under several names, including A. M. Williamson and, with her husband, C. N. and A. M. Williamson. She married Charles Norris Williamson in 1894, and the pair became especially well known for collaborative fiction that mixed romance, society life, and the new glamour of motoring.
Their books often used travel as part of the adventure, taking readers across England and continental Europe at a moment when the automobile still felt exciting and new. Titles such as The Lightning Conductor and The Princess Passes helped build their reputation, and her work remains of interest today for its lively storytelling and its picture of early twentieth-century travel culture.
She died on September 24, 1933. Some library records list her as born in 1869, but reliable biographical sources also give an earlier birth date, so that detail is sometimes reported differently.
