Charles Brockden Brown was an American novelist, historian, and editor. His work inspired Edgar Allen Poe. Brown has been referred to as the "Father of the American Novel" and is regarded as the most important American novelist before James Fenimore Cooper. Edgar Huntly is thought to be an example of early American gothic literature, with themes such as paranoia and the paranormal.
