description: "this book is going to be my go-to reference guide for years to come...make the investment. You won't regret it."--<i>www.bookgasm.com</i>; "this thorough, easy-to-use study should be a welcome addition to libraries with interests in the ever-growing field of popular culture."--<i>ARBA</i>; "this book is clearly a labor of love, but it leans more towards scholarly analysis than fannish drool. It's a great book for fans of pulps, rich with details and background information...many of these books, and their authors, would have been forgotten if not for this one-of-a-kind reference work"--<i>A Book Made For Me-A Writer's Life.</i>
