W. Paul Cook : ウィキペディア英語版 | W. Paul Cook W. Paul Cook (1880 - Jan. 22, 1948) was a writer, printer and publisher. He wrote under his own name and the pseudonym Willis T. Crossman and was a leading figure in the hobbyist tradition of amateur journalism. He lived and wrote mostly in Vermont and Massachusetts. Cook was born in Mount Tabor, Vermont. His mother died giving birth and he was raised by his aunt and uncle. He attended Dartmouth but did not graduate.〔 Among his works are a memoir about H. P. Lovecraft and stories about Vermont.〔 He met Lovecraft through the National Amateur Press Association, and quickly became a champion of his weird fiction, some of which was first published in Cook's journal, ''The Vagrant.'' Cook also broadened Lovecraft's familiarity with supernatural literature by loaning him books and encouraging a systematic study of the field that resulted in Lovecraft's famous essay, "Supernatural Horror in Literature," which was first published in Cook's ''The Recluse'' (1927).〔"Cook, W() Paul" in S.
