Johnny Ludlow, Second Series
'Johnny Ludlow, Second Series' is a Victorian romance novel by Henry Mrs. Wood. Written in first person, the novel revolves around a man named Johnny Ludlow who lived with the Todhetleys. Mrs. Todhetley, the Squire's present wife, was his stepmother, with his father having married her after Johnny's own mother's death. After his father's death—which took place speedily—she became the second wife of Squire Todhetley, and the stepmother of his only son and heir, Joseph. Two children were subsequently born to them, Hugh and Lena, to whom Joseph was of course half-brother. Joseph, unlike myself, had been old enough to resent the advent of a stepmother when she came.

Mrs Henry Wood
Biography of Ellen Wood (nee Price) (January 17, 1814 - February 10, 1887), an English novelist, better known as "Mrs. Henry Wood." Ellen Price was born in Worcester. In 1836 she married Henry Wood who worked in the banking and shipping trade in Dauphine in the South of France, where they lived for 20 years. On the failure of Wood's business, the family (including four children) returned to England, settling in Norwood in London, and Ellen Wood turned to writing. This supported the family (Henry Wood died in 1866). She wrote over 30 novels, many of which (especially East Lynne), enjoyed remarkable popularity. Among the best known of her stories are Danesbury House, Oswald Cray, Mrs. Halliburton's Troubles, The Channings, Lord Oakburn's Daughters and The Shadow of Ashlydyat. In 1867, Wood purchased the English magazine Argosy, which was founded by Alexander Strahan in 1865. She worked as its editor until June 1887. At her death (caused by bronchitis) her estate was valued at over 36,000, then a very considerable sum. Her works were translated into many languages.
