Leonora Blanche Alleyne Lang

Translator and adapter of many of the stories that appear in The Coloured Fairy Book series, despite never being credited properly. Or in the words of Andrew Lang:"The fairy books have been almost wholly the work of Mrs. Lang, who has translated and adapted them from the French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish, Catalan, and other languages.My part has been that of Adam, according to Mark Twain, in the Garden of Eden. Eve worked, Adam superintended. I also superintend. I find out where the stories are, and advise, and, in short, superintend."Often styled as Mrs. Lang, or Leonora Blanche Lang. (1851-1933)
