Jane Porter (3 December 1775 – 24 May 1850) was an English historical novelist, dramatist and literary figure.[1][2] Her bestselling novels, Thaddeus of Warsaw (1803) and The Scottish Chiefs (1810) are seen as among the earliest historical novels in a modern style and among the first to become bestsellers. They were abridged and remained popular among children well into the twentieth century.
