Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - In the thrilling narratives of 'The Exploits of Elaine' and 'The Romance of Elaine,' Arthur B. Reeve crafts a captivating blend of detective fiction and early science fiction, characterized by its intricate plotting and vivid characterizations. These stories follow the audacious exploits of Elaine, a pioneering female sleuth, as she navigates treacherous mysteries intertwined with advancements in technology at the turn of the twentieth century. Reeve's literary style incorporates detailed descriptions, suspenseful pacing, and innovative concepts, reflecting the anxieties and fascinations of his time, particularly in the wake of the burgeoning modern age that embraced both scientific progress and societal change. Arthur B. Reeve, an American writer and early advocate for the detective genre, drew inspiration from the burgeoning fields of invention and forensic science. His educational background in journalism and exposure to contemporary criminologists and inventors enabled him to blend fact with fiction masterfully. Reeve's works celebrate the era's technological optimism while presenting strong, intelligent female protagonists who challenge the male-dominated landscape of their time, symbolizing a shift in gender roles within literature. Readers seeking a mix of mystery, adventure, and romance will find 'The Exploits of Elaine' and 'The Romance of Elaine' not only entertaining but also a rich exploration of early feminist themes and the interplay between technology and society. Reeve's pioneering works invite the audience to engage with the dynamic character of Elaine and witness her navigate an exhilarating world of intrigue.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The Second volume of Leonaur's Craig Kennedy seriesIn Craig Kennedy the American nation might justifiably lay claim to their own Sherlock Holmes, for here is a detective whose activities projected him into the modern age. Where Conan Doyle's famous character of a more gentle era relied on his superb powers of analysis, Kennedy is able to combine his own intellectual powers with the technological marvels of a new age. Arthur B. Reeve's classic 'Craig Kennedy' stories began appearing in 1910, ensuring him of a place as a dominant crime fighter for the emerging 20th century. Kennedy is perhaps the natural evolution of the 'great detective' and the reader cannot but imagine that Holmes would have embraced his newly created techniques with equal enthusiasm. Here the reader will discover the application of lie detectors, gyroscopes, seismographs and an arsenal of other equipment, both real and imagined, to the solving of crimes and the bringing of criminals to justice.This special Leonaur collection of the 'scientific' detective of Columbia University comprises seven substantial volumes, each in a colour coordinated cover. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket, so this may be the ideal way to collect and own the marvellous Craig Kennedy detective story series.In the second volume, the reader will find two more complete books of intriguing detective stories to enjoy-The Dream Doctor and The Exploits of Elaine, originally published in 1914 and 1915 respectively. Within its pages enthusiasts can puzzle over many a dastardly crime and, of course, an equal number of brilliantly deduced solutions.

Craig Kennedy Stories, Complete:The Silent Bullet, The Poisoned Pen, The Dream Doctor, The War Terror, The Social Gangster, The Treasure Train, The Ear in the Wall, Gold of the Gods, Exploits of Elaine, Romance of Elaine, Guy Garrick, Constance Dunlap
Published by Harper & Brothers, Publishers, 1918
First Edition
Cloth. Condition: Good +. Dust Jacket Condition: No Jacket As Issued. First Thus. Here's a set of books for the mystery lover . . . and it's a rarity as an entire set as well. This offering is the entire 12 volume set of the Craig Kennedy Stories. They were published individually in Cosmopolitan magazine, then in 1918 as this twelve volume set. The Craig Kennedy Stories were written by Arthur B. Reeve, and Craig Kennedy became known to many as The American Sherlock Holmes. Certainly the series helped lay the foundation for future American mystery writers to build upon, and are a valuable part of America's mystery heritage. His The Poisoned Pen may have been the source for the name of one of America's greatest book stores, The Poisoned Pen in Scottsdale, Arizona. (You'll have to ask Barbara Peters for confirmation . . . or denial.) All of the books in the series are either in good condition, or good + condition (most are in good +), all were published by Harper & Brothers Publishers, and 8 of the 12 have frontispieces by Will Foster, none have dust jackets . . . and probably never did. The set is still very readable, would look great on a shelf, and would make an absolutely great present for yourself, or a vintage mystery fanatic. The individual books, in order by volume number are: The Silent Bullet, The Poisoned Pen, The Dream Doctor, The War Terror, The Social Gangster, The Treasure Train, The Ear in the Wall, Gold of the Gods, Exploits of Elaine, The Romance of Elaine, Guy Garrick, and Constance Dunlap. Thank you!
