Autorenporträt

Dane Coolidge was an American writer and naturalist known for his contributions to Western fiction, a genre that celebrates the unique culture, geography, and spirit of the American West. Born on March 24, 1873, in Natick, Massachusetts, he went on to author over 30 books during the early to mid-20th century. One of his notable works, 'Hidden Water' (1910), exemplifies his literary prowess in portraying the raw and rugged landscapes intertwined with human drama and adventure. Coolidge's writing style is characterized by its vivid descriptive narrative and an acute attention to the intricate details of the environment and regional vernacular, which has earned him a place among the noteworthy authors of Western tales (Coolidge, D. (1910). Hidden Water. New York: Grosset & Dunlap). His body of work includes both fiction and non-fiction, with a significant contribution to understanding the animal life and ethnography of the Southwest. Coolidge's eloquent representation of the old West, including its people, their lifestyles, and the struggles they faced, has immortalized his name among enthusiasts of Western American literature. Besides 'Hidden Water', Dane Coolidge's legacy is sustained through other works such as 'The Texican' (1911) and 'The Fighting Fool' (1924), both of which further showcase his mastery in Western literary creation.
