Interesting film. Like a lot of folks my age, I began collecting the Bantam Doc reprints hwen they started coming out. I'm only missing a few.Just recently began looking into some of his other work the small presses are beginning to put out.
Good stuff. How amazingly prolific he was.
200,000 published words a month?!Leaping lizards! Do you think the pressure of writing that many words gave him the heart attack? Matt
Randy, Wish there was more footage/documentary on him because this snippet was interesting but frustratingly brief. I collect Dent's work and consider some of his non Doc Savage novels to be among his finest writing. Like the recent Hard Case Crime.Charles, 200,000 is damn prolific.Matt, I'm not sure about the details of his death but he certainly packed a few lifetimes into his fifty-four years.
Simply, there is individuals able to do such amazing feats of wordcraft like Dent. 200.000 each month!
In another time, they may have been tried for witchcraft. :)
Cool little film. A nice find.
The first film footage I have seen of Dent which was neat.Brian Reed
