From the November 1920 issue of the classic pulp magazine "The Blue Book" comes this short novel, "a highly colored Oriental romance of the sort the author of 'The Brazen Peacock' and 'The Talking Trees' has made famous."

This volume includes "The Stagnant Death," by H. Bedford-Jones (part of his "Trumpets from Oblivion" series) and the novel "The Radio Flyers," by Ralph Milne Farley.

Originally published as a four-part serial in the legendary pulp magazine "The Thrill Book," here is the story of Sir Gerald Desmond, late officer in His Majesty's Royal Flying Corps. Broke and drunk in Manila, he befriends a consumptive Irish fiddler, Michael O'Sullivan, and the two become involved in a free fight with the native constabulary. From this brawl they are rescued by an unknown benefactor -- but when they come to their senses, they find themselves shanghaied aboard the schooner 'San Gregorio', bound for Mindoro Island. Typhoons, smugglers, beautiful women, opium, and mutiny are just the beginning of their adventures!

This volume reprints a rare 1920 western novel by H. Bedford-Jones, one of the great pulp magazine writers.

This new collection from the pen of H. Bedford-Jones presents five of his most exciting works from the pulp magazines of the early 20th Century, four novelets and one short story. Included are "The House of Skulls," "Written in Red," "Yellow Intrigue," "Down the Coast of Barbary," and "Skulls." Sure to please not only afficianados of pulp fiction but readers looking for some of the best adventure writing around, The House of Skulls and Other Tales from the Pulps is the latest addition to the Wildside Pulp Classics line!
