Pulp Jungle Adventure Novel

Description

This is the story of Frank Gruber’s days in the pulp jungle, his memories of the editors who bought his material and the writers who were working then. Erle Stanley Gardner, Carroll John Daly, Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, and the incredible Max Brand are strong subplots in this document of one of the most exciting times and eras in popular American fiction. This book is also a profound document for anyone interested in writing or knowing more about some of the fine authors America has produced. It is also a history of BLACK MASK, the now-defunct magazine which ranks next to Edgar Allan Poe in the shaping of American mystery fiction as we know it today.
