WOOD, SIR HENRY EVELYN (1838- ), British field marshal, was born at Braintree, Essex, on the 9th of February 1838, the youngest son of Sir John Page Wood, Bart. Educated at Marlborough, he entered the Royal Navy in 1852, and served as a midshipman in the Russian war, being employed on shore with the naval brigade in the siege operations before Sevastopol, mentioned in despatches, and severely wounded at the assault on the Redan on June 18, 1835. Immediately afterwards he left the navy for the army, becoming a cornet in the I3th Light Dragoons. Promoted lieutenant in 1856, he exchanged into the i7th Lancers in 1857, and served in the Indian Mutiny with distinction as brigade-major of a flying column, winning the

Ellen [Mrs Henry] Wood East Lynne , caused quite a scandal on publication, being the story of an adulterous wife who leaves her husband and three children for an irresponsible rake who finally turns out to be a murderer, too. Much of the novel is concerned with the lady's everlasting remorse, and the narrator's warning address to other married women who might be pondering a similar action has become a much-quoted passage among experts. But the erring wife's doings and feelings are presented with much sympathy and thus at least part of the guilt is laid at the seemingly ideal husband's door, however much the auctorial voice may deny it. So, after all, Wood's novels are worth reading if one is willing to overlook the narratorial deficiencies, not only because they offer interesting stories full of suspense and romance but for the cultural insight they grant into the concerns and anxieties of apparently perfectly ordinary members of Victorian society: what is it that made so many Victorian readers value these novels as 'unputdownable', as modern book reviews like to put it? Sensation fiction has for some decades been a fertile field for Victorian scholars and the works of the 'big' ones, Collins and Braddon, have been the foremost subject of interest, and, consequently, of quite a heap of publications. It may be safely assumed that sooner or later Wood will be next.

Good reviews led to massive sales and she became a household name. The book lent itself to melodrama and a succession of dramatic adaptations helped to maintain interest in its author.

Intelligence was often measured by breeding, position, wealth or even physiognomy. It was apparent that many of the wealthy, upper class males abused and wasted the privilege while the rest were denied the opportunity. Mary Cholmondeley aptly describes the products of this system: He had the spare, wiry figure, tall and lightly built, square in the shoulders and thin in the flank; he had the clear, weather-beaten complexion, the clean, nervous, capable hand, and the self-effacing manner, which we associate with myriads of well born, machine trained, perfectly groomed, expensively educated, uneducated Englishmen. Our public schools turn them out by the thousand. Prisoners by Mary Cholmondeley. Chapter 3. However, it became obvious towards the middle of the 19th century that this was not quite appropriate.

Ellen Wood - A Biographical Sketch (A brief outline of Wood's life and writing career) Compiled by Michael Flowers East Lynne (1861) – one of the most successful of the sensation novels of the 1860s. Wood followed her initial triumph with thirty more novels, and over a hundred short stories, most containing elements of mystery, crime, detection and suspense. Wood also edited the highly successful Argosy magazine from 1867 until her death some twenty years later.             Wood suffered from several childhood ailments; the most serious being a severe curvature of the spine which was first noticed when she was thirteen. She had to spend days at a time on a reclining board or couch, but as she had access to books she remained in good spirits. Wood’s affliction affected her growth and she remained under five feet in height. She was also left devoid of muscular power and could never "carry anything heavier than a small book or parasol." Many subsequent novels were written in a reclining chair with the manuscript on her knees, or later in a specially designed chair which enabled her to write at a table. Argosy magazine, and wrote the only, but highly inadequate, biography of his mother.
