She became research assistant to the editor Dr. Douglas Southall Freeman, biographer of Robert E. Lee, George Washington, and author of Lee’s Lieutenants. She continued to do free-lance writing for newspapers.
One of the many reasons which led Miss Williams to write THE SHAWNEE TOMAHAWK was the encouragement she received from the late novelist Ellen Glasgow. When Miss Williams told her the story of Mary and Jim Moore, Miss Glasgow said, “It is a shame that no one has written this story for the young people of today, Frances, you’ve got to promise me to do it.”ver menos
