Thomas Patrick Kelley, self-proclaimed “KING OF THE CANADIAN PULPS” and the “FASTEST AUTHOR IN THE EAST”, would churn out as many as three 4,000-word short stories in one day and was still unable to meet his demand. Kelley published fantasy serials with such titles as I Found Cleopatra and The Face that Launched a Thousand Ships for the popular pulp magazines, Weird Tales, Uncanny Tales, and Eerie Tales.
Kelley is probably best remembered for his books on the murder of the Donnelly family on the night of February 4, 1880. The Black Donnellys has been through more than two-dozen printings since 1954. Vengeance of the Black Donnellys, the sequel, has been reprinted 16 times since 1962.
We are very pleased to publish The Kelley Collection with the endorsement of the Darling Terrace Publishing Company
