This is the first collection of William Lindsay Gresham’s ever to be published.
       This edition unearths 24 of Gresham’s most fascinating short stories and essays, most of which have never been reprinted since their original publication, and provides, at long last, a comprehensive view of one of pulp fiction's most enigmatic figures.
       A biographical essay by Bret Wood charts Gresham’s tumultuous life and career (including his troubled marriage to Joy Davidman), revealing the events that led to his alcoholism, his struggle for sobriety, and ultimately his suicide in 1962.
