About the author
Alden Charles Noble was an American author and poet, born on May 17, 1880, and died on June 13, 1942. Public-domain library records and author listings connect his name with poetry, fiction, and work written for music, showing a writer who moved comfortably across several forms.
Among the works linked to him are The Buccaneer Book: Songs of the Black Flag and the novel White Ashes, which he co-authored with Sidney R. Kennedy. Library of Congress and music-library records also show him contributing words or librettos for musical works, suggesting that his writing was not limited to the printed page alone.
A full modern biographical sketch is hard to confirm from the sources available, so many personal details about his life remain obscure. Even so, the record that does survive presents him as a versatile early-20th-century American literary figure whose work still circulates through archives, public-domain collections, and audiobook catalogs.
