Thomson, pseudonym Grace Wharton)   was an English writer, known as a novelist and historian. She married, in   1820, the physician Anthony Todd Thomson, as his second wife. At her   husband’s suggestion Thomson began biographical compilation, starting with a   brief Life of Wolsey for the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge,   in 1824. She developed anecdotal biography, as used by Isaac D’Israeli, John   Heneage Jesse, and Agnes Strickland. It gave her material for a series of   historical novels, anticipating those of Emma Marshall.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Wallachia Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47145058566384,"sku":"9781531244934","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781531244934_p0.jpg?v=1763739755","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781531244934","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
