Bio

Jessie Laidlay Weston was born December 29, 1850. Her study of the arts, particularly her interest in pagan rituals and Arthurian legend, was enabled by the inheritance she received upon her fathers death. Of the more than twenty books she wrote, her final book, From Ritual to Romance, is her most celebrated work. In 1923, the University of Wales awarded her the Doctor of Literature degree for her contributions to the field.
