About the author
Born in 1862, Mildred Anna Rosalie Tuker was educated privately and studied Moral Sciences at Newnham College, Cambridge. She wrote under the name M. A. R. Tuker and became known for books including Handbook to Christian and Ecclesiastical Rome and Cambridge, often combining travel writing with religious and historical interests.
Records of her papers show a wide range of concerns beyond her books, including literary correspondence, material connected with Ecce Mater, and papers on "Women Preachers." That surviving archive suggests a writer deeply engaged with questions of faith, public life, and the place of women in the Church.
Sources available here agree that she died in 1954. I couldn't confirm a reliable portrait from the pages I checked, so no profile image is included.
