I'm fairly sure that included his short fiction but sketchy on that. This was written for an "Ed McBain Companion" for Warner Books edited by Ed Gorman. Sadly, the book was never published as it had some very good stuff (at least the stuff I was privy to ) in it. If there's any more help I can give, let me know.Peter Enfantinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317575598411394944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672923492889685727.post-28635874295538510542012-02-21T19:24:15.853-08:002012-02-21T19:24:15.853-08:00I'm trying to put together a bibliography of E...I'm trying to put together a bibliography of Evan Hunter's short fiction. Since, You seem to know more about the Manhunt stories than most people, I wonder if you could answer a question for me: In the May 1964 issue there a Hunter "classic" called "The Dying and the Dead" which, I assume is a reprint under a new title. Would you happen to know the original title of that story? For some reason I'm thinking its a Matt Cordell story, maybe "Die Hard". <br /><br />If you could help me with this, I would be very grateful.joadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11343944032812253464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672923492889685727.post-65413971100145337942012-02-20T11:02:51.325-08:002012-02-20T11:02:51.325-08:00I'll miss the guide, but I understand there ar...I'll miss the guide, but I understand there are only so many hours in a day.

Time got the better of me at last and I couldn't keep up with Manhunts, Marvels, and TV shows. Lots of blogs, very little time. I ended up selling the Manhunts in one big shot to a collector. I tried to persuade him to take over the reins of the Complete Guide but to no avail.<br />Again, my apologies for no explanation after all this time.Peter Enfantinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317575598411394944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672923492889685727.post-5028510777789308842012-02-16T12:23:03.530-08:002012-02-16T12:23:03.530-08:00Been almost a year now and no new Complete Guide t...Been almost a year now and no new Complete Guide to Manhunt since part 21.

Radin was certainly one of the top fact crime writers of his time, winning at least one (maybe more, I haven't checked)of the first Edgars for non-fiction. His book Lizzie Borden: The Untold Story was a best-seller and proposed a likely suspect for the Fall River murders.<br /><br />The supposed likeness between Jack Webb and Ed Gorman is interesting because they are at times thematically linked. Webb is usually an interesting read, while Gorman remains one of the truly great writers working in the field today.Jerry Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482856733981933159noreply@blogger.com
