Who was Catherine Gore?
Catherine Grace Frances Gore was a British novelist and dramatist, daughter of a wine merchant at Retford, where she was born. Her father died at the time of her birth, and in 1801 her mother married a London physician, Charles D. Nevinson, so she is sometimes referred to as "Miss Nevinson" by contemporary reviewers and in scholarship. She is amongst the best known of silver fork writers – authors of the "long" Regency era depicting the gentility and etiquette of high society.
