Dinah Maria Mulock Craik was a British novelist who began by writing children's books. In 1857 she wrote John Halifax, Gentleman, which is considered to be her best work. John Halifax, Gentleman is the classic story of a poor boy who through hard work and the highest of morals makes good. It was one of the first novels to have a tradesman as hero. The mood in Britain at this time echoed the Great Exhibition's empathizes on industry and technology. The opening words of John which were "Sir I want work" began a tale that reflected the values of the Protestant ethic.
