Short Fiction Various: Past Masters Thirty-Six, V1, 15 July 2021

[Pulpmeister]

Another anthology of short stories in the Life+70 public domain; a mix of humour, early sf, and hard boiled crime. Also "Ladies in Lavender", the original short story on which the 2004 movie (with Maggie Smith and Judy Dench) was based. One of the whitfields is a Jo Gar tale; the other tells of a bull-at-a-gate crusading crime busting newspaperman and the brutal gunshot murder of his boss inside the newspaper building itself. Culpeper Zandtt is also Clarence Herbert New.
