An Omnibus of Dime Novels from the Nineteenth Century.
Once avidly devoured by youth across the States, these short novels are home to one of the greatest heroes in American literature, though his thrilling exploits are now sadly largely lost to time. Once upon a time, the adventures of Deadwood Dick, outlaw and Prince of the Road, were read by millions of boys, who awaited his next adventure hungrily.
Originally published as weekly dime novels, these short novels are now being republished in a series of volumes, each containing 4 works by Edward L. Wheeler from the Deadwood Dick Library. The eponymous hero makes an appearance in many of the stories, though quite a few star other weird and interesting characters. Now you can own a piece of American literary history.
This Volume, the first in the series, contains the dime novels:
Deadwood Dick, the Prince of the Road; Or, the Black rider of the Black Hills.
Introducing Deadwood Dick, outlaw. Enemies from Dick's past return in this tale of vengeance, gold mines, duels, and Calamity Jane.
The Double Daggers; Or, Deadwood Dick's Defiance.
After Deadwood Dick is seemingly caught and hanged his spirit returns to exact vengeance on the people of Deadwood and its Regulators, while a young woman gallantly flees her controlling uncle and a forced marriage, in this tale of treachery and mistaken identity.
The Buffalo Demon; Or, The Border Vultures.
A squad of rangers head deep into Indian country in pursuit of a gang of outlaws led by a buffalo headed man who claims to be a demon from hell. All is not as it seems in this tale of action and mystery set in the old West.
Buffalo Ben, the Prince of the Pistol; Or, Deadwood Dick in Disguise.
The tale of a man's search for his kidnapped sister and of another man's quest for vengeance on their behalf. Duels and gunfights abound in this classic dime novel.
