"Harry Leon Wilson (May 1, 1867 June 28, 1939) was an American novelist and dramatist best known for his novels Ruggles of Red Gap and Merton of the Movies. Another of his works, Bunker Bean, helped popularize the term "flapper". Harry Leon Wilson was born in Oregon, Illinois to Samuel and Adeline (ne Kidder).[2] His father was a newspaper publisher, and Harry learned to set type at an early age.[3] He began work as a stenographer after leaving home at 16, and he worked his way west through Topeka, Kansas, Omaha, Nebraska, Denver, Colorado, and eventually to California. He was a contributor to the histories of Hubert Howe Bancroft, and became the private secretary to Virgil Bogue. Wikipedia ; 12mo 7" - 7" tall; 335 pages
