Fulton Oursler was one of the great editors of his time, ruling
over the Macfadden publishing empire for two decades. He created
the first true-crime magazine, True Detective Mysteries, and
off-beat titles like Brain Power, Ghost Stories and True Strange
Stories. He achieved national fame in the '30s as the editor of
Liberty. But stage magic was his first love, and, in his heart, he
remained a conjurer in a black cape and top hat. In this collection
of early fiction, Oursler's bewitching imagination takes flight in
tales of magic, murder and mesmerizing mystery. Apparitions,
half-wits, secret panels, devious deceptions, lunatic asylums,
warring magicians, criminal masterminds-it's all here. Also
featured is an in-depth exploration of the amazing career of Fulton
Oursler.

This sequel to "The Greatest Story Ever Told" follows the turbulent
adventures of the apostles Paul, Peter, and James after the
crucifixion of Christ in their struggle to spread the Good News to
the world. Faithfully based on the scriptures of the "Acts" and the
"Epistles," this saga of kings and jailers, of far voyages and
shipwreck, of strange miracles and escapes and ultimate martyrdom,
has inspired and touched generations of readers. It is a story that
is timeless.
"A magnificent book and the most inspiring reading that has come my
way for a long time."
--A.J. Cronin
"A lucid, deeply moving account of the first century of the
Christian era. Fulton Oursler has re-created the life of the early
Church with noble simplicity and profound understanding."
--Laurence J. McGinley, S.J., Past President of Fordham University
"Multitudes of people will rejoice in this book... the] story is
told with wonderful and convincing simplicity."
--"Chicago Tribune"
