The Governess, or The Little Female Academy by Sarah Fielding, published in 1749, is generally seen as the first boarding school story.
As a biographer, she wrote The Lives of Cleopatra and Octavia in 1757, a history, written from Greek and Roman sources, on the lives of Cleopatra and Octavia, two famous women from Roman times.
