Evelyn Sharp 
Making of a Prig [EPUB ebook] 

Evelyn Sharp was a suffrage activist who left home as a young woman against her family’s wishes, supporting herself as a journalist and writer of novels, many of which were geared to younger audiences. The author’s spirited independence is clearly evident in Katharine, the heroine of The Making of a Prig, who gradually gathers the strength to make her own way in the world.
