    Alfred Coppel

    Alfred Coppel (1921-2004) was an American author and writer of science fiction and historical fiction. He was born in New York City and served in the United States Army Air Corps during World War II, where he flew 150 combat missions as a navigator and bombardier. After the war, Coppel pursued a career in writing and published his first short story in 1947. He went on to write over 40 novels and numerous short stories, many of which were published in science fiction magazines such as Galaxy and Astounding Science Fiction. Coppel's work often explored themes of war, politics, and the human condition. Some of his notable works include "The Burning Mountain," "The Hills of Home," and "The Glory Boys."
