Irving Bacheller was an American journalist and writer who founded the first modern newspaper syndicate in the United States whose books, generally set-in upper New York state, are humorous and full of penetrating character delineations, especially of rural types. [brit]
Bacheller was the James Michener of his day: sometimes his books (mostly historical novels) sold out as soon as published. In all he wrote 29 novels, 5 volumes of biography and autobiography and numerous short stories, poems and essays. [localwiki]
