Friday's "Forgotten" Books: The Links



Patti Abbott is recovering from la dolce vita up there yonder, so I'm hosting the links today, and Patti will have them for you again next Friday, barring the flood. And there might well be a few additions to the list here over the course of the day. Meanwhile, almost two citations of Red Scarf by Gil Brewer, two backhanded tributes to Michael Avallone, at least two werewolves, and two by "John Rhode" who was really John Street, though not the John Street who was the previous mayor of Philadelphia, just before the incumbent Michael Nutter, because Philly likes to have mayors whose names will amuse the English:

Todd, I didn't know you were hosting FFB this week too. Thanks very much for including my post.

Thanks for the inclusion Todd - I just realised that Patti wasn't hosting this week and I have updated the post accordingly. Max Allan Collins just got in touch which was very, very nice of him.

Thank you, folks, and no need to thank me. Glad to have your contributions!
