Deborah Alcock (1835 1913) was an Irish author best known for her historical fiction, particularly works with religious and evangelical themes. Born in Kilkenny, Ireland, she was the second daughter of John Alcock, the archdeacon of Waterford, and his wife, Jane Innes. Alcock s early life was marked by her strong Christian upbringing, which influenced much of her later writing. She was deeply involved in religious and social causes throughout her life. Alcock is recognized for her precise and detailed portrayal of church history, often embedding these elements into her fictional stories. Her works primarily focus on themes of faith, sacrifice, and the moral struggles individuals face in times of religious conflict. Among her most popular works are The Spanish Brothers, By Far Euphrates, and Genevi ve or the Children of Port Royal. Alcock s novels gained significant attention for their vivid depictions of historical events, particularly those involving religious persecution and martyrdom. Throughout her career, Alcock maintained a reputation for producing engaging, thoughtful narratives that combined historical accuracy with moral lessons. She passed away in Hastings, United Kingdom, on January 15, 1913, leaving behind a lasting legacy in the genre of historical fiction.
