Andy Adams (1859-1935) was a successful American writer of Western stories and young reader mysteries. Raised by pioneer parents, Adams lived in several western states during the closing days of the frontier, where he worked as a cowhand in Texas and a gold miner in Colorado. His partly fictional LOG OF COWBOY is considered one of the best accounts of cowboy life told from a first-hand perspective.
