Hi
I just found this entry in another dealer's catalog. It's a
book I hadn't heard about before. Does anyone have a copy?
What are examples of the kinds of books the author
includes?
Steve
Gray, Philip Howard. MEAN STREETS AND DARK DEEDS: THE
HE-MAN'S GUIDE TO MYSTERIES. Bozeman, Montana: Badger Press
of Montana, 1998. A fine hardcover, issued without dust
jacket; 10.2 x 7.1 inches; [4] x, 338 pages; reviews, author
directories, references, author signatures. This is an
annotated bibliography/review of 1001 'he-man' mysteries with
ratings in five categories (plot, language, action, mystery,
and excitement). The author's comments are sometimes scathing
and often amusing. Apparently a fire-arms expert, he takes
great delight in illuminating the failures of some of the
genre's top writers. Entries are alphabetical by title.
