"Of the woman-authors born in Scotland, Margaret Oliphant wrote "Chronicles of Carlingford" and the charming novels "Merkland"; "The Quiet Heart"; "Zaidee," all of which are exquisite delineations of Scottish life and character. Another Scottish woman-author deserving of mention is Mary [sic] Ferrier, whose novels "Marriage," "The Inheritance," and "Destiny" breathe much originality and humor."
