The Knockabout Club In The Woods : The Adventures Of Six Young Men In The Wilds Of Maine and Canada

By Charles Asbury Stephens

Published by Estes & Lauriat: Boston 1883


"Charles Asbury Stephens (1844 - 1931) was an American writer who published short stories and articles under the name C. A. Stephens. Stephens was born in Norway, Maineand attended Bowdoin College starting in 1866, but dropped out because of lack of funds. For most of his career he was under contract to The Youth's Companion and, for a time, was their most popular and prolific contributor. Stephens himself estimated that he had written 3,000 short stories. The Youth's Companion put him through medical school so that they could have a staff physician to write scientific articles; he earned his M.D. from Boston University in 1887."
