ELEANOR HALLOWELL ABBOTT Eleanor Hallowell Abbott (1872-1958) was
born in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The daughter of clergyman Edward
Abbott and granddaughter of well-known children, s author Jacob
Abbott, she grew up in a religious and scholarly environment. After
studying at Radcliffe, she worked as a secretary and a teacher at
Lowell State Normal School. She began writing poems and short
stories for publication shortly thereafter. In 1908 she married Dr.
Fordyce Coburn and moved to Wilton, New Hampshire. Here she met her
first literary successes, with sales to such prominent magazines of
the day as Harper's, Collier's, and The Delineator. She soon
received national recognition, going on to publish fourteen books
and more than seventy-five short stories. Her romantic fiction
focused primarily on young women and was described as charming by
readers of the day. Her work was most popular in the 1910s and
1920s. This volume collects two of her shorter works: The
Indiscreet Letter and Little Eve Edgarton, which are typical of her
style and range
