content: First published in 1961 as part of the Cool and Lam detective series, Bachelors Get Lonely is little more than 167 pages of mindless drivel. Authored by the legendary Erle Stanley Gardner under the pseudonym A.A.Fair, this book is a monumental disappointment. The plotting is unwieldy, the characters repeatedly insist on doing things completely out of character and the dialogue, more often than not, is laughably inauthentic sounding. Do not waste your time reading Bachelors Get Lonely.
