About the author
Born in 1859, Charles Norris Williamson was an English writer and journalist who became widely known as C. N. Williamson. He is remembered above all for the novels he wrote with his wife, Alice Muriel Williamson, a successful collaboration that made the pair familiar names to many magazine and book readers of their day.
Their fiction often mixed romance, mystery, travel, and light social comedy, with settings that helped give readers the feel of fashionable Europe and the thrill of modern travel. Among their best-known books is The Lightning Conductor, one of the titles that helped build their reputation for lively, entertaining storytelling.
Williamson died in 1920. Though he is sometimes listed with slightly different birth details in reference sources, he remains chiefly notable as one half of a remarkably productive writing partnership whose novels captured the mood of an age fascinated by motoring, tourism, and adventure.
