Thrilling tales of the Middle East during the crusades by acclaimed pulp writer, Harold Lamb
Harold Lamb (1892–1962), who wrote biographies and screenplays as well as historical fiction, is best remembered for his tales of Cossacks and crusaders. Howard Andrew Jones is the managing editor of Black Gate magazine and the editor of the Bison Books editions of Harold Lamb’s Wolf of the Steppes, Warriors of the Steppes, Riders of the Steppes, and Swords of the Steppes. Scott Oden, a writer of historical fiction and fantasy, is the author of Men of Bronze and Memnon. More information about Harold Lamb and his works is available at www.haroldlamb.com.
"Lamb was an expert plotter. His stories...fly forward with the velocity of galloping horsemen. Robert E. Howard, the creator of Conan, viewed them as models...Like a burial mound's hidden hoard of treasure, they lay undisturbed, awaiting their rediscovery by Mr. Jones--and now a growing band of admirers." JOHN J. MILLER, The Wall Street Journal, 26th Aug 2009
