Edwin Page

With over ninety books published since 2005, British-born writer Edwin Page is an extremely prolific author. Having written in at least four non-fiction genres and eight fiction genres, he’s also one of the most diverse.

His acclaimed historical novels include a number relating to slavery around the time of the American Civil War, of which The Hanging Tree was the first to be published. Also among them are the bestsellers Oona and Runaway. They also include three set in Cornwall, England. These are entitled Where Seagulls Fly, Song of the Sea and The Shepherd of St Just, and are all set towards the end of the 13th Century. They received glowing reviews from the Historical Novel Society and, like the ‘slave stories,’ tell the tales of social outcasts.

Edwin Page has a 1st Class degree in Film & Literary Studies and has had numerous short stories, articles and poems published in a variety of publications. Born in Cambridge in 1972, he went to university in Carlisle, and now lives in southwest Scotland after spending around fourteen years living in the far west of Cornwall, England.
