About This Item
In this, his down-to-earth memoir of his writing life published the year before his death, McFarlane describes his early years as a journalist, through his years with the Syndicate, and beyond. An enduringly uncommon book - which speaks both to the ongoing popularity of the series and McFarlane - it was recently republished by Godine after years of being out-of-print. A foundational Hardy Boys document and an under-appreciated writing memoir in its own right. 9'' x 5.5''. Original blue quarter cloth over boards. In original unclipped ($8.95) color pictorial dust jacket designed by Alan Daniel. 212 pages. Some minor edgewear to jacket, small closed tear to rear panel. Touches of rubbing and some faint sunning to book extremities.
