Private secretary to , 1918 to 1937 "CA's major contribution to Supernatural Fiction was as an anthologist. ... The books [5 probably] established a standard for ghost-story Anthologies that few have bettered. CA applied the same exacting standards to her anthologies for children, which contain many magical fantasies." --Encyclopedia of Fantasy (Mike Ashley)
