À propos de l'auteur
Ernest Haycox (1899–1950) was a prolific writer whose literary career was marked by his notable contributions to the Western genre of fiction. Born in Portland, Oregon, Haycox grew into an influential figure whose work helped define the Western as a significant and enduring form of American literature. After serving in World War I, he attended the University of Oregon, which cultivated his interest in history and storytelling. Haycox's writing, characterized by its authentic depictions of frontier life and its complex characters, emerged during the early 20th century, a time when the Western genre was gaining popularity among readers seeking escapism and adventure. One of his many accomplishments includes the book 'Riders West' (1939), an embodiment of his dedication to historical accuracy blended with dramatic narratives. Although Haycox's stories are fiction, they often draw upon the rich tapestry of American history, reflecting the struggles and triumphs of individuals carving out a life in an untamed landscape. His influence extended beyond literature; his story 'Stage to Lordsburg' became the basis for the classic film 'Stagecoach', directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne. Haycox's legacy lives on, not only through his substantial body of work but also through the recognition of his contributions to both the Western genre and American literature as a whole. His stories continue to captivate readers with their vivid portrayal of the Old West and its inhabitants.
