Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. FIRST PRINTING. "Here is a volume that generations of readers have longed for-the first-ever selection from the letters of Dashiell Hammett, the onetime private detective who, in five astonishing books written between 1927 and 1933, invented the modern American crime novel. Hammett was not only the founding member of the hardboiled school, he also was its greatest practitioner, and even after Chandler and all the rest, his body of work remains the solid-gold standard. The best of his work is literature-without the quotation marks. Though Hammett's work has long been world-famous, the writer's private life has always been obscure. Now his biographer, Richard Layman, and his granddaughter, Julie M. Rivett, have gathered a treasure trove of Hammett's correspondence, almost all of it from private collections, almost all of it previously unpublished." 650 pages. Save for some slight arching to spine, common in this book due to size/weight, A FINE COPY! LF.

Hardback with dustjacket. This work is compiled of the letters, both private and professional, of Dashiell Hammett, creator of Sam Spade. In his five great crime novels, all of them written between 1927 and 1935, Dashiell Hammett gave America a cast of immortal characters - Sam Spade, the Continental Op, and Nick and Nora Charles, mold-breaking, red-blooded alternatives to Sherlock Holmes and Lord Peter Wimsey. A popular writer from the start, he aspired to a higher goal. As he was working on his classic The Maltese Falcon, he wrote a letter to his publisher about the potential of the detective-story form: Someday somebody's going to make literature out of it.
