Arthur Cheney Train, born on September 6, 1875, in Boston, Massachusetts, was an American lawyer and writer known for his legal thrillers and true crime stories. A member of a distinguished family, Train studied at Harvard College and later at Harvard Law School, graduating in 1899. He soon joined the New York County District Attorney's Office, where he worked under William Travers Jerome, an experience that proved seminal for his writing career. It was during this time that Train cultivated an intricate understanding of the legal system, drawing upon real-life cases to fuel his literature. His most renowned work, 'True Stories of Crime From the District Attorney's Office' (1908), showcases his mastery in recounting the complexities of crime and justice, enthralling readers with authentic narratives that reveal the human elements in the interplay of law and society. Train's writing style is characterized by its vivid characterizations and detailed exposition, stemming from his hands-on experience in the legal domain. His legacy endures not only in legal literature but also in pop culture, having created the fictional character Ephraim Tutt, an astute lawyer featured in many of his works. Over his career, Train published more than 50 books and numerous articles, contributing to the landscape of early 20th-century American literature with works that remain an insightful window into the era's social and legal challenges. Arthur Train passed away on December 22, 1945, but his works continue to be of interest to those passionate about legal history and crime literature.
