Autorenporträt

Charles Morris was an American journalist, novelist, and writer of historical textbooks, born on October 1, 1833, in Chester, Pennsylvania. He gained popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for his accessible and engaging works that introduced general readers to significant historical events, figures, and scientific ideas. He wrote extensively on American history, world history, and contemporary issues of his time, often aiming to bridge the gap between academic scholarship and public understanding. Morris s writing style combined clarity with detail, making his books appealing to both students and casual readers. His body of work includes not only history but also explorations into science and evolution, where he showed a strong commitment to rational thought and evidence-based explanations. As a novelist and essayist, he was deeply concerned with progress, education, and moral development, often advocating for the pursuit of knowledge over superstition. Morris lived and worked primarily in Pennsylvania, contributing regularly to periodicals and serialized publications. His writings reflect the optimism and reformist spirit of his era. He died in Philadelphia on September 7, 1922. His parents were not widely documented, and little is known about his early family life.
