The Best of Blood 'n' Thunder: Selections from the Award-Winning Journal of Adventure, Mystery and Melodrama in American Popular Culture
Since 2002, Blood ‘n’ Thunder has explored American popular culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries as manifested in the era's popular fiction—dime novels, story papers, nickel weeklies, pulp magazines—and such derivative storytelling vehicles as stage melodramas, motion pictures, and Old Time Radio programs. Blood ‘n’ Thunder’s readers include not only veteran fans and collectors of such material, but also newly interested hobbyists born decades after the heyday of pulps and related narrative forms. This 340-page book collects the finest articles and reviews that appeared in Blood ‘n’ Thunder’s long-out-of-print first ten issues—over 125,000 words of history, biography, and commentary, impeccably researched and lovingly presented by devotees for devotees. It’s a one-volume encyclopedia for aficionados of vintage adventure, mystery and melodrama.
