About the author

Born in Kane, Iowa, on October 9, 1884, Albert M. Treynor was an American writer whose full name was Albert McKune Treynor. He later died in Jackson, California, on October 24, 1948.

Treynor wrote popular fiction, including adventure novels such as The Long Patrol and Snow-Blind. His work showed a clear flair for suspense and action, especially in stories set against harsh landscapes and frontier-style conflicts.

He also had a connection to early film: IMDb credits him as a writer associated with The Flashlight (1917), The Rainmakers (1935), and Dancing Co-Ed (1939). That mix of print storytelling and screen adaptation gives his work an appealing blend of pulp energy and old-Hollywood storytelling.
