British author Archibald Marshall became a writer later in life and rapidly gained acclaim in his own country and abroad. Regarded as a literary realist who worked in a vein similar to that mined by Anthony Trollope, Marshall excelled at creating sweeping family epics that explore many aspects of society and group dynamics, of which Abington Abbey is a stellar example. As part of our mission to publish great works of literary fiction and nonfiction, Sheba Blake Publishing Corp. is extremely dedicated to bringing to the forefront the amazing works of long dead and truly talented authors.
