Sometimes referred to as the Capstick of Alaska, his stories are mostly fictional and were based on his own experiences during his early years in Alaska.
Born on December 4, 1904, in Tacoma, Washington, he had long dreamed of moving to Alaska, and soon made his way north to the frontier. He lived off the land—fishing, hunting, guiding and trapping—whilst writing numerous articles for sporting magazines, including Sports Afield, Outdoor Life, Field and Stream. Many of his articles featured his most memorable character, Tex Cobb.
During World War II, Annabel served as a United Press war correspondent in Alaska.
He died in Mexico in 1979.показать меньше
