Mary Virginia Terhune (1830-1922), since her first novel in 1854, was the author of bestselling women's fiction as well as nonfiction books about housekeeping. She published more than 50 books and hundreds of magazine articles. Albert Terhune (1872-1942), one of three of Mary's children who became writers, was the country's most famous and highest-paid writer of dog fiction. Terhune wrote primarily about collies and used his Sunnybank estate in Pompton Lakes, New Jersey for the setting.
