A propos de cet article

This book was originally published by Wright & Brown Publishers (UK) in 1935, this copy appears to be a pirated copy. The book and its contents are in generally clean, bright condition. There is some light bumping to the spine ends and edges of the book cover. The text pages are clean and bright. There is a small inked book store name and address on the bottom corner of the front pastedown page. The price clipped dust jacket has several small chips, some creasing and a couple of beginning edge tears. There is noticeable ground-in dirt to the white portions of the dust jacket, especially the spine. Alroy West is apparently a pseudonym for the British adventure / mystery author Michael (Roy) Hastings - which is itself a pseudonym for a Herbert Roy Higgins.

"Michael Roy Hastings was born Herbert Roy Higgins in Handsworth, Birmingham, on 19 October 1907, son of Herbert Higgins, an accountant's clerk, and his wife Caroline, née Hart. He was educated at Bishop Vesey's, Sutton Coldfield, and in the 1930s lived in West Kirby, Cheshire. He wrote at least 41 novels under the names Michael Hastings, Alroy West and Gabriel Hythe between 1933 and 1980, mostly adventure thrillers. He also wrote numerous short stories for the Evening News and Argosy between 1949 and 1978. He also wrote on Egyptology and eastern literature, and contributed to the Liverpool Weekly Post. He changed his name to Michael Roy Hastings by deed poll in 1939, and married journalist Barbara Board in 1940, which allowed her to accompany him as he was posted to the Middle East with the RAF during the Second World War. However, the marriage was a brief one. ".…
