About the author

Very little biographical information about E. Uhlrich is easy to confirm from reliable public sources. Project Gutenberg and other major book listings consistently attribute The Nineteenth Century Apostle of the Little Ones to E. Uhlrich, and no clearly verified personal profile appears to be widely available.

What can be confirmed is the work itself: it is an article about Don Bosco that was published in The Catholic World in 1903 and later preserved in digital editions. The book presents Don Bosco as a compassionate guide for poor and neglected young people, with a straightforward style that makes the subject feel immediate and inspiring.

Because so little verified information survives about the author, E. Uhlrich remains a somewhat mysterious figure. That said, the enduring circulation of this work suggests a writer interested in religious biography, practical compassion, and the lives of people who tried to change the world by helping children.
