HIRAM ALFRED (H.A.) CODY was a clergyman and novelist. He was born in Codys, New Brunswick, a town named after his family, in 1872. While more commonly recognized for his work in the ministry than for his writing, H.A. Cody was still one of Canada's most widely read authors. His publications were amongst the first to be mass-produced in North America due to their accessibility, Christian themes, and appeal to a broad audience. Cody died in Saint John, New Brunswick in 1948.
