Description
> ***Uncollected Crimes** >Edited by Bill Pronzini and Martin H. Greenberg* >The work of Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, Agatha Christie, Rex Stout, Erle Stanley Gardner, Cornell Woolrich, John Dickson Carr, Ellery Queen, John D. MacDonald, James M. Cain, Dick Francis, and Evan Hunter (Ed McBain), to name just a few, was showcased in the pulps and the digest-sized monthlies such as *Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine* and *Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine*. >"Much of the magazine output by these and other outstanding crime fiction writers has been anthologized (in some cases, over anthologized) and/or collected by the individual authors. And yet, for one reason or another, excellent stories by the best in the business have escaped notice and remain long out of print. In recent years, a number of neglected pulp stories have been resurrected for the enjoyment of the modern reader; but until Uncollected Crimes, there has been no anthology devoted to "lost" stories from the post-1950, digest-size mystery magazines." >-*from the introduction by the editors*
