Henry Kitchell Webster

Henry Kitchell Webster (September 7, 1875 – December 8, 1932) was an American author who lived in Evanston, Illinois. He wrote novels and short stories on themes ranging from mystery to family drama to science fiction. He first achieved moderate recognition in 1899 when he co-wrote ''The Short Line War'' with fellow Illinois author Samuel Merwin, with whom he later collaborated to write one of his more famous works, ''Calumet "K"'' (1901).
==Popularity==

''Calumet "K"'', which ''The Chicago Daily Tribune'' called "a vivifying romance of business," has maintained a modest level of popularity due to its status as Ayn Rand's favorite novel, a source of inspiration for her Objectivist philosophy.〔Rand, Ayn (July, 1967). Introduction to ''Calumet "K"'', by Merwin-Webster, i-ix. New York: NBI Press, 1967.〕〔Butcher, Fanny. “Literary Circle Mourns Webster.” ''The Chicago Daily Tribune''. 10 December 1932, 17.〕〔Dalrymple, Scott (1997). "Capital Fictions: The Business Novel in America, 1890–1910." PhD diss., State University of New York at Buffalo. 81–82.〕 Webster's novels ''The Real Adventure'' (1916) and ''An American Family: A Novel of Today'' (1918) both received critical praise upon release, and the former novel was made into a silent film in 1922.〔Lehman, Peter (2012).

BR26.〕〔(''The Real Adventure'' at silentera.com database )〕 By the time of his death, Webster had become one of the most popular authors of magazine serials in America.〔
