1863–1938
Adventure, danger, and faraway settings seem to define these surviving works, which were published in the early 20th century and later preserved in library records and Project Gutenberg editions. Reliable biographical details are scarce, but the dates 1863–1938 are consistently attached to the author in catalog-style sources.

Kurt Lange appears to have been a German-language author whose known surviving works include adventure fiction. Project Gutenberg records for Kalkkarokäärme and Teräshermoinen mies identify the author as "Kurt Lange" and connect those texts with early 20th-century popular storytelling centered on the American Southwest and the Wild West.
Beyond the basic life dates, 1863–1938, I could not confirm many personal details from reliable, openly accessible sources during this search. Because of that, it is safer to describe him through the books that remain discoverable than to speculate about his career, nationality, or literary circle.
For readers, that air of mystery may even add to the appeal: the available works suggest a writer drawn to suspense, action, and vivid frontier settings, with stories built for momentum and atmosphere rather than quiet realism.
