About the Author:
Abigail Elizabeth Reynolds has a history as fascinating as her heroine. She is an ordained minister, a mental health professional, a mischievous adventurer in her own right, and a loving presence in the lives of those who know her.
Refusing to accept life sitting down, she recovered from cardiac arrest and a diagnosis of brain death, achieved a PhD, and wrote her first novel, which encapsulates her indomitable spirit and love of history.
She brings to this book a reminder of the courage and strength needed by those who would bring about change in the status quo of any era.
“The Reporter Wore Petticoats”, published by Infinity Press, is now available.
