About the author

A 1900 graduate of Hobart College, Edward Bellamy Partridge went on to study law, and for about a decade practiced law with his father, Civil War veteran and country lawyer Samuel Selden Partridge, in the little town of Phelps, New York--near Rochester--before striking out as a freelance writer, novelist and popular historian under the pen name Bellamy Partridge.
