The Days of Mohammed
by Anna May Wilson
About the author
Anna May Wilson is a little-documented author whose known works include The Days of Mohammed (1897) and A Star in a Prison: A Tale of Canada (1898). Library listings and public-domain editions also show her involvement in In League with the Powerful (1899), a work associated with Eugenia D. Bigham and Alice L. Griggs.
What can be confirmed from those records is the character of her writing: it sits comfortably in the late 1800s, mixing moral reflection with historical or dramatic storytelling. The Days of Mohammed presents a fictionalized narrative set around the emergence of Islam, while A Star in a Prison points to her interest in vivid, story-driven settings.
Because reliable biographical sources on her life are scarce, much about Anna May Wilson the person remains unclear. Still, her books have lasted long enough to be preserved by projects like Project Gutenberg and major library catalogs, which speaks to the continued curiosity surrounding her work.
