Biographical History
John Park Cravens (1899-1971) was born near Mount Magazine, Logan County, Ark. At the age of eighteen, he began editing and printing his own weekly newspaper, The Magazine Gazette, and published the first of his many tall tales that dealt with Arkansas and the Ozarks. Cravens was also a freelance writer. His stories were published in national magazines and broadcast on the radio. The United Confederate Veterans appointed Cravens honorary Colonel to the staff of their Commander-in-Chief, and he served as justice of the peace in several Arkansas townships.
