Book description
The fifth issue of Adventure Tales salutes pulp legend Achmed Abdullah,
popular writer in the pulp magazines in the early 20th century, with two
long stories -- "Their Own Dear Land" and "The Remittance
Woman." Many of his stories deal with exotic locales, usually
Oriental. But even his Occidental tales are of interest, well written
and fast paced, often with an unexpected twist or two. Also included are
"The Mid-Watch Tragedy," a Jimmy Lavender detective story by
Vincent Starrett, and "The Pearls of Paruki," by J. Allan
Dunn. Another great issue!
