His fiction was quite good too, I just got hold of a serial, <i>Caravan Treasure</i>, that he did in <i>Blue Book magazine</i>, and it's very enjoyable.<br /><br />If you would care to share some of the letters, you can reach me via email at pulpflakes AT gmail DOT com.Sai Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480681895921130917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4099827080854690588.post-1652347619024572382014-04-26T10:17:03.763-07:002014-04-26T10:17:03.763-07:00I find the man fascinating.

His writing is so insightful and enthusiastic. I also have the final letter where as he went to see his dying mother he closed down the travel letter business and returned unused subscription funds. This is the best biographical account of his life I have read yet.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17867867922133191397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4099827080854690588.post-9114981852871871202013-11-17T06:48:05.460-08:002013-11-17T06:48:05.460-08:00Excellent blog about Dwyer, I have not read anythi...Excellent blog about Dwyer, I have not read anything by him, but love that South Sea Adventure stuff. I like Beatrice Grimshaw's tales of the South Sea's from Everybody's, great stuff! As For Richard Flanagan a fellow Aussie he was awesome as a pen and ink man, would love to have an original from him....Jonathan G.

Hard to believe he was sentenced to 7 years in prison for forgery involving 10 pounds. <br /><br />My favorite Dwyer stories are the two serials that he did for BLUE BOOK in the mid-thirties. I also have one of the Flanagan illustrations used for one of the serials.Walker Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16089880902426182100noreply@blogger.com
