Autor

Edward Lytton Wheeler (1854/5–1885) was a prolific American author of dime novels, a genre that offered readers exciting tales of the Wild West for a mere ten cents. Born in the mid-nineteenth century, Wheeler began his writing career at a young age, capturing the imaginations of his readers with vivid depictions of frontier life. He is best known for creating the character 'Deadwood Dick,' a quintessential western hero who encapsulated the daring and gallantry that were romanticized during the era of westward expansion. Wheeler's 'Deadwood Dick Jr. Branded; or, Red Rover at Powder Pocket' further cements his reputation as a master storyteller of the Wild West. His narratives often included thrilling adventures, outlaws, lawmen, and a flair for melodrama, characteristic of the literary style of dime novels of his time. Unfortunately, Wheeler's life was truncated when he died at the young age of thirty, but his contribution to the Western genre has lived on, inspiring others and providing a cultural window into the mythos of American frontier folklore. His work remains an essential point of reference for scholars and enthusiasts of early American popular literature.
