Author

Flora Annie Steel (1847–1929) wrote of India and of English folklore — fairy tales, legends, and novels from years spent in the Punjab. St. George of Merrie England and the story collections in our catalogue show a storyteller who moved between empire and nursery with a collector's ear. Sixteen titles make a generous Sovereign shelf of tale and history.
