Elizabeth "Beth" Ellis (1874–1913) was a British author who dedicated her literary career to writing novels and travel literature during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Born in 1874, she developed her craft during a period of significant transition in British literature, contributing to the diverse landscape of Edwardian-era publishing. Her work as a novelist allowed her to engage with contemporary fiction, while her travel writing offered readers perspectives on different regions and cultures. Ellis's career was ultimately cut short by her early death on August 2, 1913, at the age of thirty-nine. Although her active writing years were brief, her dual focus on fiction and travel documentation represents the expanding opportunities and subjects pursued by female British writers of her generation.
