/у mong the most popular novels in the early decades ofthe twentieth кЈ/Í/ century were a series of motor travel romances, beginning with The Lightning Conductor (1902), published as by “C. N. and A. M. Williamson” and widely understood to be the work of authors Charles Norris Williamson and his wife, Alice Muriel Williamson. Despite the fact that “C. N.” never wrote any fiction bearing his name, acknowledged by his wife many years later, the view erroneously ffersists that the two were joint authors. Much is known about Charles, the highly respected editor of Bļacķ and White and several other journals of the 1890s, but virtually nothing about his wife, the true author, except that she was American, had formerly been an actress, and went to England intending to pursue journalism. Her autobiography, The Inky Way (1931), published two years before her death in 1933, begins curiously/« media res with her journey to England in 1892, and remains conspicuously silent about all that preceded that voyage. It is the purpose ofthis biography to supply the missing chapters ofher previous life in America, providing hitherto unknown details about her several earlier careers as actress, journalist, and author of fiction. The appended bibliographies ofher stories-contributions that appeared in virtually every magazine ofnote during her lifetime-attest to her extraordinary popularity, which was as great as or greater than that enjoyed by any of her author contemporaries. Installments of her serials in newspapers throughout the world were eagerly anticipated by millions of readers, earning
her a reputation as the “queen of the serialists.” Readers revisiting her storiesmany ideated from her own adventurous and romantic life-will find them remarkably undated and possessed of an intense human interest no less intriguing today than when they were first published.
