Excerpt from Notable Women Authors of the DayBetween the production of Realities: a Tale, in 1851, and Witch Stories, there was a gap of ten years, which the young writer devoted principally to journalism. She was, indeed, the first of women journalists. She contributed to several of the daily papers and magazines. Presently a series of pungent and clever essays began in the Saturday Review, which increased its fame, and took the world by storm. The Girl of the Period, The Shrieking Sisterhood, Paying One's Shot, Mature Sirens, have now passed into proverbs. They made a famous topic of conversation at dinner-tables, and proved a decided hit. For many years a certain lady of rank had the credit of the series, until at last, after many futile efforts, Mrs. Lynn Linton was allowed to collect her own papers and publish them under her own name.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
