Об авторе

Arthur Benjamin Reeve (October 15, 1880 — August 9, 1936) was an American mystery writer. He is best known for creating the series character Professor Craig Kennedy, sometimes called ‘The American Sherlock Holmes’, and Kennedy’s Dr. Watson-like sidekick Walter Jameson, a newspaper reporter, in 18 detective novels. The bulk of Reeve’s fame is based on the 82 Craig Kennedy stories, published in Cosmopolitan magazine between 1910 and 1918. These were collected in book form; with the third collection, the short stories were stitched together into pseudo-novels. The 12-volume Craig Kennedy Stories were released in 1918; it reissued Reeve’s books-to-date as a matched set.
