About the author
Very little biographical information about this author could be confirmed from reliable online sources during this search, but the published record shows that Clayton Edwards wrote A Treasury of Heroes and Heroines, issued by Frederick A. Stokes Company in 1920.
Other catalog and book-history records also link the name Clayton Edwards to retellings for younger readers, including The Story of Evangeline and a version of Don Quixote. Taken together, those books suggest a writer interested in introducing classic literature, history, and legendary lives in an accessible, adventurous style.
Because so little verified personal information appears to be available, the books themselves tell most of the story: Edwards wrote in a period when collections of heroic biography were designed to entertain while also presenting examples of courage, endurance, and public spirit.
