William MacLeod Raine (1871-1954), was a British-born American novelist who wrote fictional adventure stories about the American Old West. His earliest novels were romantic histories taking place in the English countryside. However, after spending some time with the Arizona Rangers, Raine shifted his literary focus and began to utilize the American West as a setting. The publication of Wyoming marks the beginning of his prolific career as a writer of western novels, twenty of which were made into movies.
