Show PETER B. KYNE I. This writer who jumped into fame a few years ago, almost over night, is rapidly becoming one of the commanding com-manding figures in modern fiction writing. The range of his powers is no less extraordinary than their quality. He has the power of being always interesting, inter-esting, while no one excels him in the ability to contribute absorbing realism, mystery, romance and vitality vitali-ty to his work. A native and resident of California, Califor-nia, he draws most of his plots and characters from that section or some part of the West. He occupies a place in the sea-faring literature of the Pacific Coast, similar to that of Jcseph C. Lincoln on the shores of New England. One of his best and most humorous tales is " The Green Pea Pirates," which this publication will soon start as a serial. Our readers read-ers must not mjss it. |
