About the Author

John Turvill Adams (September 29, 1805 – March 30, 1882) was an American novelist. He was a member of the Connecticut legislature and former lawyer. He died in Norwich, March 30, 1882, at the age of 77. In 1828 he started a newspaper called the Telegraph, in Stonington, Connecticut, which was merged the next year in the Norwich Republican, of which Adams continued the editor until 1834. About this time he was admitted to the bar, and in 1835 he was elected Judge of Probate, but held the office for only a short period, resigning it to remove from town, at first to Harrisburg, Pa., and, afterwards to Michigan. About 1844 he returned to Norwich, and in 1850 abandoned the practice of the law. He devoted himself later to literary pursuits, and published several tales of American life, such as The Lost Hunter (N.Y., 1856), and The Knight of the Golden Melice (N.Y., 1860).
