Tales of the Northwest may have been Frederick Nebel's forte, but sadly these ultra-rare magazines don't turn up often and as a result, few readers have been able to enjoy these classics. With this book, Altus Press brings these stories to modern readers, complete, uncut, and in order. Volume 1 contains Nebel's first 16 stories of this genre, taken from North*West Stories and Action Stories.
Frederick Nebel
Frederick Nebel was born on November 3, 1903. He was a charter member of the Black Mask school, a group of writers who worked for the magazine and championed the hardboiled detective noir style of the 1920s. While most of Nebel's published work was short stories, he also authored three novels, Sleeper's East, Fifty Roads to Town, and But Not the End. He died in Laguna Beach, California, in 1967.
