After majoring in History in college, Mary Ann Trail worked as an academic librarian teaching students about the joys and pitfalls of research. Frequent trips to England with her sister fanned her interest in history as they strolled through Bath, followed Roman roads in Wales and wandered prehistoric mounds in Dorset. She finally settled on the early 19th century as her favorite era for its similarities to the push and pull of today's politics.
