The life of Margaret Oliphant Wilson is marked by both literary achievement and profound personal tragedy. After publishing her first novel in 1849, she quickly established herself as a prominent writer. Her marriage brought joy but also sorrow, as she faced the loss of three children and her husband to tuberculosis. Despite these hardships, she supported her remaining children through her prolific writing. Over her thirty-year career, she endured further losses, including her last two sons, leading to a decline in her health and spirit until her death in 1897.
