THE KEELER KEYHOLE COLLECTION

 Edited by Francis M. Nevins

Harry Stephen Keeler didn't just write wacky webwork mysteries -- he lived a webwork life! Especially in the days after his wife Hazel died Harry was rabid about sending out hundreds of newsletters he called "Keyholes" to special people on his extraordinary mailing list. Thanks to one person who received -- and kept -- every Keyhole ever produced, Mike Nevins was able to edit and annotate them, placing the rants into categories like Writers, Publishers, Spain, Hazel, Thelma, Jews, Capitalism, Religion, Metaphysics, and of course, Kats. The book is huge -- 430 pages in a large, easy-to-read trade paperback edition. You'll learn more about Keeler the man by reading this book than you'll ever learn by reading his weird mysteries. Every Keeler library needs this book as its capstone!
