Theodore Roscoe (February 20, 1906 – May 29, 1992) was an American biographer and writer of adventure, fantasy novels and stories.
Roscoe later used this man as a model for his fictional Foreign Legion narrator, Thibaut Corday.
He subsequently wrote several other books on naval history including The Trent Affair, November, 1861: U.S. detainment of a British ship nearly brings war with England (1972).
Altus Press published a three volume collection of his "Thibaut Corday and the Foreign Legion" stories.
The biography Pulpmaster: The Theodore Roscoe Story, by Audrey Parente, published by Starmont House (Mercer Island, WA, 1992) was reprinted by Altus in 2012.
