The life of Margaret Oliphant Wilson is marked by both literary achievement and profound personal tragedy. After publishing her first novel in 1849, she married Frank Wilson Oliphant and faced the loss of three children in infancy, along with her husband's battle with tuberculosis. Following his death, she became the sole provider for her family through her writing. Despite her prolific output and growing reputation, she endured further heartbreak with the deaths of her remaining children. Oliphant's health declined, and she passed away in 1897, leaving behind a legacy of resilience amid sorrow.
