Autorenporträt
The Lightning Conductor (1902), was published under the name of two authors, Charles Norris Williamson (1857-1920) and Alice Muriel Williamson (1858 -1933). Yet Alice was really the author of the wonderful book you hold in your hands. Although best known for her series of motor travel romances, of which The Lightening Conductor is a preeminent example, she was a literary polymath adept at a wide variety of genres (detective, mystery, Gothic, intrigue, spy, adventure, war, ghost, fairy, pastiche, satire, fictional memoir, muckraking), often published anonymously or pseudonymously, such as Champion: The Story of a Motor Car (1907) as by John Colin Dane (memoirs narrated by the car itself), and her sensational exposé of German war plans on the eve of WWI, What I Found Out in the House of a German Prince (1915).
