| Publisher Description: Finally in book form: the burly pearler-Bellow Bill Williams-was one of the most popular, and colorful, characters who appeared in the early 1930s issues of Argosy. Written by Ralph R. Perry, Bellow Bill was a seemingly-superhuman, tattoo-covered mountain of a sailor who couldn't keep from stumbling into one adventure after another throughout the South Seas.Clearly another inspiration for the creation of Doc Savage (whose creator Lester Dent was an avid reader of Argosy during this period), these adventures of Bellow Bill have never before been reprinted. Included here are his first six stories, originally appearing in 1929-31. |
