In a career that spanned over forty years, Ella Hepworth Dixon (1857-1932) was alternately journalist, critic, essayist, short story writer, novelist, editor of a women's magazine, dramatist, and autobiographer. After an initial popularity, however, Dixon's work remained largely unread for decades. Valerie Fehlbaum sheds light on Dixon's life and work, and provides profound insight not only into Dixon herself but into the multifaceted character of the "New Woman" writer that Dixon typified.

William Hepworth Dixon (1821-1879) was a British historian and traveller. He became connected with the Daily News, for which he wrote articles on social and prison reform. In 1850, he published John Howard and the Prison-World of Europe. He was editor of the Athenaeum, 1853- 69, and wrote many books of travel, including The Holy Land (1865), New America (1867), and Free Russia (1870). Though a diligent student of original authorities, and sometimes successful in throwing fresh light on his subjects, Dixon was not always accurate, and thus laid himself open to criticism. Amongst his other works are: Spiritual Wives (1868), The Switzers (1872), White Conquest (1876), Royal Windsor (1878) and British Cyprus (1879).
