Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) was an American Civil War veteran, short story writer, and satirist/journalist. His fiction is famous for its entertaining narratives and lack of sentimentality. At the end of 1913 he disappeared in Mexico, his fate becoming one of the great mysteries of American literature.
