About the author
Allan McAulay was the pen name of Charlotte Stewart (1863–1918), a British writer born on September 30, 1863, in Cachar, Assam, in British India. Reference sources identify her as the only child of Colonel Robert Stewart and Charlotte Joanna Murray, and note that she later lived in Scotland.
She began publishing fiction in the 1890s. Works associated with her include The Hon. Stanbury, and Others (1894) and The Rhymer (1900), as well as the collaborative books The Affair at the Inn and Robinetta, written with Kate Douglas Wiggin, Mary Findlater, and Jane Findlater.
Stewart never married, according to biographical listings, and died on April 18, 1918, in Crieff, Scotland. Although she is not widely known today, her books have remained accessible through major public-domain and library projects, which has helped preserve interest in her fiction.
