Margaret Mahaney

Margaret Mahaney was an American writer remembered for Margaret Mahaney Talks About Turkeys, a practical book on raising turkeys that was published in the early 20th century.

Available catalog records and public-domain listings confirm the book and identify her as its author, while a Wikidata entry also describes her as both a writer and a farmer. That combination fits the plainspoken, experience-based character of her work.

Although not much biographical detail is readily documented in major public sources, her surviving book suggests a strong grounding in New England farm life and poultry husbandry. Today, she is chiefly of interest to readers curious about historic farming advice and early nonfiction by women working close to the land.
