A Floating City By:Action Adventure Published on 2018-08-14 by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform A Floating City, enjoyed a popularity almost equal to that of Round the World in Eighty Days.

He gives us a faithful picture of the natural and usual incidents of an ocean voyage of those days, enlivening these by introducing a romance aboard ship. The pictures of the |Great Eastern,| are of course exaggerated, not so much in words themselves as in the impressions they convey.

Pulp Classics By:John Betancourt,Robert Leslie Bellem,Lew Merrill Published on 2005-08 by Wildside Press LLC The famous |Spicy| pulp magazines of the 1930s and 1940s are among the rarest and most sought-after publications by collectors. The |Spicy| magazines -- which included Spicy Mystery, Spicy Adventure, Spicy Detective, and others -- published a titilating mix of fantasy, horror, mystery, action-adventure, and suspense, punctuated by episodes of torture, sadism, sex, and other risque elements. Although tame by current standards, and sometimes of dubious literary merit, these publications presented tales which thrilled a sensation-hungry audience. Despite the themes and constraints of the market, writers who would later become famous -- including Hugh B. Cave, E. Hoffman Price, Robert Leslie Bellem, and many more -- were frequent contributors. The December 1939 issue of Spicy Adventure Stories includes contributions from Robert Leslie Bellem, Lew Merrill (Victor Rousseau), Hugh Spee...
