註釋

John Strange Winter was the pen-name of Henrietta Eliza Vaughan Stannard (1856-1911), an English novelist. She began early to write fiction for different magazines, producing sentimental stories, chiefly of army life. She became a prolific novelist, producing some sixty other light and amusing books, the best of which deal with military life. Frances Elizabeth Crompton (1866-1952) was the author of: Friday's Child (1889), Master Bartelmy (1892), The Gentle Heritage (1893) and The Green Garland. Mary Louisa Molesworth (1839-1921) was a Scottish writer. Her first novels, Lover and Husband (1869) and To Cicely (1874), appeared under the pseudonym of Ennis Graham. She typified late Victorian writing for girls. Aimed at girls too old for fairies and princesses but too young for Austen and the Bronts, books by Molesworth had their share of amusement, but they also had a good deal of moral instruction.
