About the author
Very little reliable biographical information about this author could be confirmed from the sources available online. Library and archive records identify George Alfred Brown as the author of Harold the Klansman (published in 1923), and also list him as a contributor to School and Home Education alongside George P. Brown and William C. Bagley.
Because the documented record is so thin, it is safer to describe him through his publications than through personal details. Harold the Klansman survives in major public-domain and library collections, where it is cataloged as a historical novel connected to the Ku Klux Klan and the social debates of its era.
