Howard published primarily in pulp magazines, creating memorable characters like Conan of Cimmeria. After his suicide at the age of 30, pulps continued publishing Howard material posthumously. His first hardcover book appeared in 1937, a year after his death. That book, A Gent from Bear Creek, is the holy grail for Howard collectors--only 12 original copies are known to exist. This invaluable resource for Howard collectors has information for every known published work. Initial chapters provide a biography, discuss Howard's literary legacy, and give basic tips about book collecting a 606 $aFantasy fiction, American$vBibliography 606 $aAuthors, American$y20th century$vBiography 615 0$aFantasy fiction, American 615 0$aAuthors, American 676 $a016.81352 700 $aNielsen$b Leon$01578209 702 $aSasser$b Damon C. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797257803321 996 $aRobert E.
