Agnes Maule Machar (1837-1927) was a Canadian author. Machar was born and educated in Kingston, Ontario. She also wrote under the pseudonym ""Fidelis."" All her writings were coloured by her views as an earnest Christian, nationalist, feminist and social crusader. Her first novel, Katie Johnstone's Cross: A Canadian Tale, published in 1870, was awarded a prize for best children's Sunday school fiction. Machar was considered in her time as an author and a social critic.
