‘The Brown Owl’, A Fairy Story, is a whimsical fairy tale written by an 18 year old lad named ‘Ford H. Madox Hueffer’. This is his first book, published in 1891, however, the author would go on to publish over 80 books, many under the name he changed to in 1919, Ford Madox Ford. As in many fairy tales, Hueffer has created a love story between a beautiful princess and handsome prince, along with the pre-requisite villain who attempts to keep them apart while plotting to steal power. The magic lies in ‘the Brown Owl’, who watches over and protects the princess. Although there are no chapter breaks, this is a charming first book. It is definitely written with children in mind, yet ‘The Brown Owl’ is also enjoyed by adults.
