Wister, an American writer whose stories helped to establish the cowboy as an archetypical, individualist hero. However, his works were not limited to the Western. Lady Baltimore is a novel about aristocratic Southerners in Charleston.

Like Adam- our first conspicuous ancestor- I must begin and lay the blame upon a woman; I am glad to recognize that I differ from the father of my sex in no important particular- being as manlike as most of his sons.’ (Excerpt)
