Called the King of the Pulps, Frederick Schiller Faust, aka Max
Brand, wrote nearly 400 Westerns from The Untamed to Destry Rides
Again-a total of more than 220 books in this genre. Yet Max Brand
also created Dr. Kildare (of books, films, and television) and
wrote under twenty-one pseudonyms, in another dozen genres. This
book removes the mask, with deeply personal memoirs from family,
friends and fellow writers, taking us through his orphaned boyhood
on the brutal ranches of California, his frustrating decades in
Italy, as both a classical poet and a fast-action pulpist, to his
heroic death as a war correspondent on the World War II
battlefields. Faust's life story is augmented by a complete
bibliography of his work-over a thousand books, stories, and
films-plus the first listing of works about Faust.
