Frank W. Anderson

Born in 1919 at Brandon, Manitoba, Frank lived most of his life on the prairies. He graduated at the University of Saskatchewan in 1955, with a Bachelor of Arts, and in 1957, took his Master's Degree in Social Work at the University of Toronto. Anderson was a long-time student of western history which led him to writing many books and numerous short stories on Western Canadian history, eventually becoming the publisher of Frontier Books on the same subject.
