Harper's Magazine originally published the story in two installments in August and September 1906.Clemens wrote the story after receiving a request from actress Minnie Maddern Fiske to assist in her drive against bullfighting. Harper's published the story as a 153-page book in October 1907. Clemen's daughter Susy Clemens, who died in 1896 at age 24 of spinal meningitis, is understood to be inspiration for lead character Cathy Alison.When Clemens provided the story to Harper's, he included a photograph of Susy for the illustrator to use for Cathy.
