He is best known for his Devil's Dictionary. His sardonic view of human nature and his tough stance as a critic earned him the nickname \"Bitter Bierce\". Despite his reputation Bierce always encouraged young writers. Bierce went to Mexico to get a first hand view of the revolution. He disappeared without a trace.
