Lives of the well-known novelists from this period are not hard to find, so by way of contrast it is interesting to read a life of a writer who was equally industrious yet received little acclaim or recognition, beyond that of earning a reasonable living, for so long. The comics for which he wrote were very much a sign of their times, as a prevailing indicator of the tastes in their days when they were one of the primary sources of entertainment, and it has shed a worthy light on one of the unsung heroes of the profession.
If this book appeals then you might like to try [[Coroner's Pidgin by Margery Allingham]].
