Dillon Wallace

Dillon Wallace (1863 – 1939) was an American lawyer, outdoorsman, author of non-fiction, fiction and magazine articles.

[1] Hubbard asked Wallace to join him on an exploratory trip through Labrador, the plan was to follow the Naskaupi River to Lake Michikamau, a region that had yet to be explored by Europeans.

Over the next 30 years he published 26 more books, fiction and non-fiction, and wrote many articles for Outing, National Sportsman, American Boy and other magazines.

In 1913, Wallace mounted a third Labrador expedition with the primary purpose of installing a memorial tablet at Leonidas Hubbard's place of death.

[3] The full story, edited by Rudy Mauro, was made available online in 2006 under its original title, Back to the Labrador Wilds.

[3] Wallace married Leila Greenwood Hinman in 1917; his first wife, Jennie Currie, died in 1900 after three years of marriage.
