Bessie Marchant

    Tato autorka, známá jako Bessie, byla plodnou spisovatelkou dobrodružných románů, která se proslavila v pozdním viktoriánském a edwardiánském období. Její díla se často odehrávala na exotických místech, přestože autorka sama nikdy neopustila Anglii. Vynikala v žánru, který byl v té době obvykle spojován s mužskými autory, a byla dokonce nazývána „ženskou Hentyovou“. Na rozdíl od mnoha svých současníků však často stavěla do popředí svých příběhů ženské hrdinky, čímž nabídla jedinečnou perspektivu v rámci dobového dobrodružného románu.
