Charles Garvice (24 August 1850[1] – 1 March 1920[nb 1]) was a prolific British writer of over 150 romance novels, who also used the female pseudonym Caroline Hart. He was a popular author in the UK, the United States and translated around the world.[3] He was ‘the most successful novelist in England’, according to Arnold Bennett in 1910.[1] He published novels selling over seven million copies worldwide by 1914, and since 1913 he was selling 1.75 million books annually, a pace which he maintained at least until his death.[4] Despite his enormous success, he was poorly received by literary critics, and is almost forgotten today.[4]
