Sally Cabot Gunning is a prolific historical fiction writer based in Monticello, Massachusetts, known for her richly detailed novels set in the 18th and 19th centuries. Her writing style is characterized by meticulous research, strong female characters, and a focus on the daily lives and struggles of people in colonial and early American New England. Gunning initially used the pen name Sally Cabot to distinguish her work from her husband's, but later confirmed that she and Sally Cabot Gunning were the same person.
