Jane Webb Loudon

    Jane C. Webb Loudon was an English author and an early pioneer of science fiction, writing before the term itself existed. Her works were discussed for a century as if they were Gothic fiction, fantasy, or horror. She also created the first popular gardening manuals, distinct from specialist horticultural works, and contributed to her husband's efforts. Her unique contributions bridged imaginative literature and practical knowledge, marking her as a significant, albeit initially misunderstood, literary figure.
