Evelyn Raymond

Evelyn Raymond was an American writer who lived from 1843 to 1910. Library records and public-domain collections credit her with a large body of popular fiction, especially books for younger readers and girls, including The Little Lady of the Horse, A Quaker Maiden, Jessica Trent, and The Heroine of Roseland.

Her books appeared steadily from the 1890s through the first decade of the 20th century, showing how prolific she was. Many of the surviving titles are now preserved in digital archives, where they reveal a style built around spirited heroines, domestic drama, travel, and adventure.

Although detailed biographical information about her is not easy to confirm, her publishing record is clear: she was a productive author whose stories reached a wide readership in her era and remain part of the long tradition of American juvenile fiction.
