Marjorie Reynolds

Marjorie Reynolds was born in Rochester, New York, and before settling there, lived in France, England and Quebec. She married Major-General R C Reynolds, a retired British Army officer. The family were always interested in horses; they lived in the fox-hunting country of Genesee Valley, and spent their summers on Nantucket Island.

Marjorie Reynolds has written six horse books, all of which have a boy hero. Unlike most American horse book boys, none of her heroes come from the ranching or western worlds, but all feature English-style riding.
