Anyone heard of him?

Here's a little info : A little info (http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/USAbierce.htm)


Ambrose Bierce was born in Meigs County, Ohio, on 24th June, 1842. He was a printer's apprentice but influenced by his uncle, Lucius Bierce, became a strong opponent of slavery.

Apparently he was a socialist.

Here's The Devils Dictionary (http://www.thedevilsdictionary.com/?R)

So, has anyone read any of his work?

Your thoughts?

I have heard of him. I have not read much from him. Perhaps a few quotes from The Devil's Dicationary at most.
