Keith, Rex and Steve

Earlier this month I was lucky enough to be contacted for the second time by Keith Chapman, a past editor of the Edgar Wallace Mystery Magazine who now writes for Hale`s Black Horse Westerns series.

Keith, who in his youth was lucky enough to work for Amalgamated/Fleetway on the Sexton Blake Library series,  is a reliable source of fascinating information on so-called `pulp` writers of the past, including Rex Hardinge and Walter Tyrer.

For more information, please see my articles The Cowboy and the Detective (14 January 2011)  and The Friends of Walter the Writer (15 January 2012), both of which appear at http://bookshelvesandbrownale.blogspot.com .
