John Stevens Cabot Abbott (1805–1877) was an American historian, pastor, and prolific author, widely recognized for his biographies of historical figures. Born in Brunswick, Maine, Abbott was educated at Bowdoin College and Andover Theological Seminary, ultimately pursuing a career in both the clergy and literature. Best known for his works on American history, his literary style combined detailed narration with moralistic and nationalistic elements, which appealed to the sensibilities of 19th-century America.
