B M Bower

B. M. Bower (1871-1940) was an American author best known by her pseudonym, born as Bertha Muzzy Sinclair. She was perhaps the first female author of mass-market Western fiction, writing 68 Western novels between 1906 and 1940 that captured the frontier spirit of cowboys, ranching, and the American West. Her debut novel 'Chip of the Flying U' (1906) became a sensation and remains her most representative work, establishing her as a renowned fiction writer.
