darkbooks.org began in early 2008 I am happy to donate my time to providing you this resource, I would also like to note, that, although I try, I do not always have enough time to deal with the site, including, unfortunately, I do not always have time to answer all letters, because I have to earn money for a living. If you can financially help me, it would free me from the worries of earning money for living, perhaps partially, but ideally completely, then all 100% of my time could be devoted to the site. Also I do pay monthly web server/files storage and hosting costs to keep this site on the air. Please consider making a donation to help me continue this activity and devote more time to it or at least offset the cost of paying for storage/hosting. Even a small contribution helps!

Biography
Arlo Bates was born at East Machias, Maine. He graduated from Bowdoin College in 1876. In 1880 Bates became the editor of the Boston Sunday Courier (1880-1893) and afterward became professor of English at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1900.

Bates began writing as a student, and after graduation he briefly painted china, tutored and worked as a clerk in a metal foundry. He then moved to Boston where he became the editor of the Boston Sunday Courier in 1880. After 1893 he became professor of English at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, teaching there until his death in 1918.

In 1882, Bates married author Harriet Lenora Vose who wrote under the name. Eleanor Putnam. They collaborated on a novel, Prince Vance, that was completed in 1886. Later that year Vose died and every work book that Bates published, thereafter, is dedicated to her.
