Autor Robert Alexander Wason
en Limba Engleză Paperback
I wasn't really a Westerner an' that's why I'm so different from most of 'em. Take your regular bonie fide Westerner an' when he dies he don't turn to dust, he turns to alkali; but when it comes my turn to settle, I'll jest natchely become the good rich soil o' the Indiana cornbelt. I was born in Indiana and I never left it till after I was ten years old. That's about the time boys generally start out to hunt Injuns; but I kept on goin' till I found mine-but I didn't kill him-nor him me neither, as far as that goes.

Notă biografică

Robert Alexander Wason was an American writer. He was most known for authoring western-themed novels and short stories, some of which were serialized. Wason was born in Toledo, Ohio, to merchants Robert Alexander Wason and Gertrude Louise Paddock. He attended high school in Delphi, Indiana, and then clerked for his father for eight years, interrupted by periods of tramping and camping throughout the West. Wason served in the United States Army (artillery) for nine months during the Spanish-American War (1898-99) and worked in a number of vocations and locations before settling into a career penning westerns, which incorporate elements from his real experiences. In addition to clerking for his father, he worked as an office boy, a grip for the San Francisco cable car system, a miner in a Nevada mercury mine, and a farmer near Delphi, Indiana. Throughout his life, he lived in Ohio, Indiana, San Francisco, Detroit, Orr's Island, Maine, Temple, Arizona, Arden, Delaware, Norwalk, Connecticut, and Mountain Lakes, New Jersey. Wason married Emma Louise Brownell in Peru, Indiana, in 1911. They had two sons and one daughter. He died at Mountain Lakes, New Jersey.
