Author Biography

Harold Milton was born in Marietta, Ohio in a log cabin on a farm in 1913. He had four sisters. He loved the trees and the woods, digging ginseng, writing books, tailoring, the Church of Christ, and most of all, God. Although he only had an 8th grade education, he remedied that when he was 80 years old, receiving his G.E.D. in 1993. He spent the 1940s, '50s, '60s, and '70s writing novels and short stories he never was able to publish.
