About the Author:
Jim Tully (June 3, 1886 - June 22, 1947) has been credited with originating the hard-boiled writing style practiced later by such authors as Dashiell Hammett. In his life he’s been a dishwasher, chainmaker, boxer, newspaper reporter, tree surgeon, circus handyman, and Hollywood press agent.
