Charles Barnard (1838–1920) was an American reporter, playwright and writer who regularly contributed to a number popular fiction magazines, including The Century Magazine, Smith's Magazine, Scribner’s Monthly, Harper's New Monthly Magazine, Harper’s Young People, Wide Awake and St.
[1] His works include The Soprano (1969), The Tone-Masters (1871), a biography of Camilla Urso by the name of Camilla (1871), Knights of To-Day (1881), The Whistling Buoy (1887) and The County Fair (1888),[2] the latter among which was written with Neil Burgess and later adapted into a film of the same name (1920).
[3] His work has been noted as an often comedic avenue into a particularly broad collection of inventions and activities of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, charting perceptions of tools and technologies from electricity[4] and telegraphy[5][6] to common practices of vegetable gardening, the florist business, and fruit growing.
