About the author

Marion Sharpe Grew (also cataloged as Marion Ethel Tuckwell Grew) was a British author active in the early 20th century. Library and catalog records connect her with books on British and Dutch royal history as well as travel writing, showing a career that moved between careful historical research and more personal, observational prose.

She collaborated with Edwin Sharpe Grew on several books, including The Court of William III (1910), The English Court in Exile: James II at Saint-Germain, and Rambles in Australia (1916). These works suggest a shared interest in court life, biography, and travel, with subjects ranging from the Stuart court to impressions of Australia.

Under the name Marion Ethel Tuckwell Grew, she also published William Bentinck and William III (Prince of Orange): the life of Bentinck, Earl of Portland, from the Welbeck correspondence in 1924. Some catalog records also attribute The House of Orange to her. Reliable portrait information was not readily available from the sources found, so no image is included here.
