Frederick Nebel's career in literature began with his early experiences in Canada, where he developed a deep understanding of the wilderness and Canadian history. His writing career took off after he moved to New York and began working as a brakeman on passenger trains. Nebel's early success with stories of life in the Canadian backwoods led to his association with the magazine Black Mask, where he became one of the major influences on the development of hard-boiled detective fiction. His characters, such as Captain Steve MacBride and reporter Kennedy, were among the most popular entries in the magazine, and his stories were adapted into films and a radio series. Nebel's influence on the genre is significant, and his works continue to be celebrated for their realistic portrayals of crime and violence.
