Edward Payson Roe was an American novelist, Presbyterian minister, horticulturist, and historian, born on March 7, 1838, in New Windsor, New York. He graduated from Williams College and later attended Auburn Theological Seminary, where he prepared for a career in ministry. Roe became well-known for his Christian novels, which often blended moral teachings with the exploration of social issues. His writing style reflected his strong religious beliefs, and many of his works focused on Christian values, personal growth, and the struggles of individuals to live virtuous lives. Roe's contributions to literature were significant during his time, particularly in the genre of Christian fiction. Aside from his literary pursuits, he was passionate about horticulture and history. Roe married and had three children Sarah Theresa, Merwin, and Pauline Sands. He passed away on July 19, 1888, at the age of 50 in Cornwall, New York. Despite his relatively short life, Edward Payson Roe's novels had a lasting influence on Christian literature and are still appreciated for their moral and spiritual messages.
