Wesley D. Sweetser
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dr. Wesley Duaine Sweetser (1919 – 2006) was an English critic.
Born in National City, California he attended the University of Colorado where he gained a Ph.D. in 1958 for a thesis on Welsh writer Arthur Machen. He served for a long period in the United States Air Force reaching the rank of Captain.
This enthusiasm led him to publish a valuable Machen biography and bibliography with Adrian Goldstone based on his earlier thesis. He played an important part in supporting the sixties revival in Machen’s works.
