This early work by Abraham Grace Merritt was originally published
in 1918 and we are now republishing it with a brand new
introductory biography. 'The People of the Pit' is a fantasy
adventure of two gold prospectors who discover mysterious people
who live down a mine. It tells the tale of adventurous explorers
who discover an unknown world. Abraham Grace Merritt - also known
by his byline, A. Merritt - was born on the 20th January, 1884 in
New Jersey, America. Merritt's stories typically revolved around
conventional pulp magazine themes. His heroes are gallant Irishmen
or Scandinavians, his villains treacherous Germans or Russians and
his heroines often virginal, mysterious and scantily clad. Merritt
married twice, once in the 1910s to Eleanore Ratcliffe, with whom
he raised an adopted daughter, and again in the thirties to Eleanor
H. Johnson.
