Produktinformationen zu „Smithy / Smithy series Bd.1 (ePub)“
Between 1904 and 1918, Wallace collected tales about life in the British Army and the escapades and adventures of the troops. These led him to create the eponymous character, 'Smithy.' The first in the ¿Smithy¿ series, this book is a collection of 23 short stories and vignettes featuring the eponymous soldier and his two mates, Nobby Clark and Spud Murphy. Easy to dip in and out of and with Wallace's crackling use of dialogue, 'Smithy' is a perfect gift for any fans of one of the most prolific authors of the 20th century.Initially published in the Daily Mail, the ¿Smithy¿ series features a bunch of short stories about the everyday life of the soldiers in the British military.
Autoren-Porträt von Edgar Wallace
Born in London, Edgar Wallace (1875 - 1932) was an English writer so prolific, that his publisher claimed that he was responsible for a quarter of all books sold in England.Leaving school at the age of 12, Wallace made his first steps into the literary world by selling newspapers on the corner of Fleet Street.He worked as a war correspondent after joining the army at age 21, which honed his writing abilities. This led to the creation of his first book, 'The Four Just Men.'Wallace is best remembered as the co-creator of 'King Kong,' which has been adapted for film 12 times (most notably directed by 'Lord of the Rings' director, Peter Jackson, and starring Jack Black and Naomi Watts).However, he leaves behind an extensive body of work, including stories such as 'The Crimson Circle' and 'The Flying Squad.'
