Download or read book Edgar Wallace written by Neil Clark and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2014-10-27 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘It is impossible not to be thrilled by Edgar Wallace.’ So said the blurbs of Wallace’s own books. Indeed, he was a prolific author of over 170 books, translated into more than thirty languages. More films were made from his books than any other twentieth-century writer, and in the 1920s a quarter of all books read in England were written by him. His success is written in black and white, but his life got off to an inauspicious start. Edgar Wallace, the illegitimate son of a travelling actress, rose from poverty in Victorian England to become the most popular author in the world and a global celebrity of his age. Famous for his thrillers, with their fantastic plots, in many ways Wallace did not write his most exciting story: he lived it, and here Neil Clark eloquently tells his tale to allow you to live it too.
