Parley, Peter. This pseudonym was adopted by several writers, who cannot
all be identified. The most voluminous users of it were Goodrich, Samuel
Griswold, and Martin, William. An alleged Rev. T. Wilson, to whom
many Peter Parley books have frequently been attributed, never existed:
he was a figment created by the publishers (Darton and Clarke), Doctor
Samuel Clarke being the chief, but not the only, participant in the works
to which the fictitious name was attached.
The chief works published under the pseudonym were:
