		FRANCES HODGSON BURNETT (1849-1924) grew up in Manchester until, in 1865, her widowed mother was forced to take her children to Tennessee, the home of Frances's uncle.
		She married Swan Burnett in 1873, was the family breadwinner (her first short story was published in the late 1860s) and had two sons.
		The Secret Garden (1911) is still a bestseller and The Making of a Marchioness (1901) has been an out-of-print favourite: Linda in The Pursuit of Love puts it in the Red bookshop instead of Karl Marx, and Grace in The Blessing was absorbed by it on the day her mother died.

		Burnett, a writer too complex to be described as a children’s author, was due another biography, and we’re lucky Gerzina was the one to write it.
		The Hodgson’s Clinton Pike home, which was near Mechanicsville and probably on the same hill as the future Knoxville College, was the one she christened “Noah’s Ark”; “Vagabondia Castle” was near the river and downtown.
		Burnett lived a fascinating life, unlikely at every turn, a children’s book author sometimes better known for her mature social satire; a strong, opinionated, successful woman in an era when women weren’t even allowed to vote; a sensitive English girl in postwar Knoxville.
