About the author
Very little firm biographical information appears to survive about this author. Reference sources and library-style records identify Edwin Green as active roughly from 1880 to 1932, and modern catalog listings connect the name with adventure fiction from the early 1930s.
He is chiefly known for the Goliath stories, including Air Monster (1932) and Secret Flight (1933). These books are generally described as near-future aviation adventures for younger readers, built around the excitement of giant aircraft and high-stakes missions.
Because so little personal history has been confirmed, the work itself remains the main way readers meet this author: through brisk, imaginative tales from an era fascinated by flight, machinery, and the future.
