John Roy Musick (February 28, 1849 – April 14, 1901) was an American historical author and poet best known for his ''Columbian Historical Novels.'' ==Early life== Born in St. Louis County, Missouri on February 28, 1849, the son of Ephraim and Mary Musick. While a small boy his family moved to Adair County, Missouri where he received his education in rural schools.〔History of Adair County by E.M. Violette, Published 1911 by the Denslow Publishing Company〕 After graduating the First District Normal School (now known as Truman State University) in Kirksville, Missouri in 1874 he spent the next two years as a rural school teacher while concurrently studying law. He passed the Missouri Bar in 1876 and became a practicing attorney. By 1882 however he gave up his law career to devote full-time to literature. Mr. Musick was also very active in Republican Party politics from his college days onward. It was his involvement in the successful 1896 presidential campaign of William McKinley that earned him the nomination to the post of Consul to Siam (present-day Thailand). However he declined the honor, choosing to continue his writing career.
