A sweeping revisionist history of the founding of WEIRD TALES, one of the most influential pulp magazines. Its first two years (1923-24) was so painful to its creators that they immediately banished their memories to secrecy, their silence suppressing the story for almost a century. Here at last is the true saga, the unraveling of the mystery.

Autorenporträt
John Locke is a leading historian of the pulps who has written on magazines famous and obscure. He is co-author (with Doug Ellis and John Gunnison) of the pioneering Adventure House Guide to the Pulps. His writers' mag series (Pulp Fictioneers, Pulpwood Days) explores the history of the pulps through the experiences of the participants in the industry. He applied the same approach to Weird Tales and discovered a story richer, stranger-and thornier-than he ever imagined.
