About the Author:
Among the least known but better authors of tales of
adventure in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century
era was Texan Lewis B. Miller, whose stories appeared in
serial form in a weekly farm paper, The National Stockman
and Farmer, and a regional edition of the publication, The
Pennsylvania Stockman and Farmer.
Lewis B. Miller was born at Blocker Creek, Cooke County, Texas, on May 27, 1861. His father?s name was Henry
Miller and his mother Lurilla Osburn Miller. He received
his early education in frontier schools in Texas. In 1881 he
obtained an A.B. degree at Texas Christian University. He
moved to Marlin, Texas, in 1931, apparently to live with
relatives, and died there on July 26, 1933. He was buried
at Hico, Texas, which is about 70 miles southwest of Fort
Worth.
Lewis B. Miller was an excellent writer with a good
education, and his stories were very accurate from a geographical and historical standpoint. He wrote adult, young
adult tales of adventure, dealings with frontier life, cattle
driving. His base writing is about the southwest frontier
pushing civilization into the wild west, French and Spanish
territories or into the Indian?s hunting grounds. Besides
frontier life, his novels cover a wide field of subjects, such as:
homesteading, trapping, hunting, fur trading, logging, rafting, gold-seeking, Indian life and about all that confronted
frontier life which most Americans have forgotten and many
have never known. Many early American statesmen and
patriotic pioneers appear in his stories, who are authentic.
The frontier stories involved confrontation with the Indians
and the hard life of the pioneers.
Due to the fact that Miller?s stories appeared originally
only in a farm weekly, they did not receive a wide circulation
and thus remained unknown to much of the reading public.
This neglect has been partially corrected by a small church
foundation press in Pennsylvania. They
have published a number of soft cover reprints of his work
and more are pending.
For those who collect adventure books for the pleasure
of reading, there can be no better investment than in Lewis
B. Miller tales.
