About the author

Very little biographical information about this author could be confirmed from reliable online sources. Public-domain book records and bookseller listings consistently credit E. Uhlrich as the author of The Nineteenth Century Apostle of the Little Ones, a work about the life and mission of Saint John Bosco.

A Wikisource author page appears under the fuller form Eugene Uhlrich, which may refer to the same person, but the available sources do not provide enough detail to confirm a fuller biography with confidence. Because the historical record is so thin, the most trustworthy picture is simply that of an author remembered through this one religious and biographical work.

That makes Uhlrich one of those elusive figures sometimes found in older literature: a writer whose personal story has largely faded, while the book itself continues to circulate for modern readers through digital archives.
