註釋Charlotte Mary Yonge (1823 - 1901) was an English novelist known for her huge output, now mostly out of print. She began writing in 1848, and published during her long life about 160 works, chiefly novels. Her first commercial success, The Heir of Redclyffe (1853), provided the funding to enable the schooner Southern Cross to be put into service on behalf of George Selwyn. Similar charitable works were done with the profits from later novels. Yonge was also a founder and editor for forty years of The Monthly Packet, a magazine (founded in 1851) with a varied readership, but targeted at British Anglican girls (in later years it was addressed to a somewhat wider readership). In this book: The Heir of Redclyffe The Little Duke, Richard the Fearless The Lances of Lynwood Grisly Grisell A Story of the Captivity of Mary of Scotland
