About this product
Product Information
Dashiell Hammett, Mickey Spillane, James M. Cain, Raymond Chandler, Jim Thompson, David Goodis ... these are a few of the masters of noir responsible for the great lurid paperbacks of the thirties, forties, and fifties. With titles like The Big Sleep, Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye, and Street of the Lost, with racy cover lines like My gun-butt smashed his skull! and Ruthless terror ripped away the mask that hid cold fear, and with some of the most extraordinary cover illustrations ever to grace American literature, these paperbacks held the ingredients of American nightmares. In Harboiled America --lavishly illustrated with 135 paperback covers, and expanded with new material on Thompson, Goodis, and others--Geoffrey O'Brien masterfully explores the art, history, and ideas of the American paperback.

BUYER BEWARE! Company took forever to ship. When they finally did they used counterfeit postage and usps stopped shipment. When I confronted the company they stopped all contact with me. Will be reaching out to eBay to rectify the situation. Do not buy from these people, they’re shady!
