Charles Norris Williamson (1859-1920) was a British writer who, along with his wife Alice Muriel Williamson, gained notable fame as co-authors of a number of popular novels at the turn of the 20th century. Born in Exeter, Williamson was initially involved in journalism and managed a newspaper before transitioning to the literary world. The literary partnership with his wife commenced after their marriage in 1894, eventually producing numerous romantic and adventure novels that captivated audiences in both Britain and America. Their joint writing process often involved Charles developing the framework of the plot and setting, while Alice was primarily responsible for the narrative elements and character development. This collaboration resulted in a harmonious blending of his detailed knowledge of mechanics and her literary finesse, creating a unique style that was characterized by engaging storylines with a backdrop of travel and exploration—a reflection of the couple's own love for adventure and motoring. Some of their celebrated works include 'The Lightning Conductor', a whimsical tale of motoring and romance that found extensive readership and critical acclaim for its charming blend of wit and narrative dexterity. Their collective literary output, encapsulated in anthologies such as 'The Greatest Works of C.N. Williamson & A.N.
