Mother Mary Loyola (1845–1930) was an English Roman Catholic nun and an author of bestselling Catholic books. James Fallon SJ, writing for America, called her one of the "most prolific and popular" writers in the Catholic literary world.[1] She published her first book in 1896 at age 51, and produced at least 27 more in the ensuing 30 years. Her works sold globally and were translated into many languages.[1]
