Summary
Details

From his debut in a 1914 novel by Louis Joseph Vance the adventures of Michael Lanyard, aka the Lone Wolf, have thrilled millions around the world. Lanyard was a reformed crook turned gentleman detective turned hardboiled trouble-shooter and something of a private eye - depending on which incarnation you're familiar with - and his adventures were documented in nine books, twenty-four films, thirty-nine half hour television episodes and a radio show.

Alongside a biography of his creator this is a comprehensive look at the career of the Lone Wolf including details of the character's birth in print, his debut in silent movies as well as a full and detailed history of his subsequent film career, and an extensive history of the TV series that starred Louis Hayward.

About the Author: Best known for his association with the adventures of The Saint, Ian Dickerson has written books and articles on subjects as diverse as satellite links, mashed potatoes and Lord Grade. He was co-producer on the 2017 TV movie of The Saint and has written and directed a number of documentaries on the making of the 1960s and 70s TV shows that share the name. His books cover subjects such as The Falcon and Sherlock Holmes as well as various aspects of the work of Simon Templar and the adventures of Leslie Charteris. He lives in Hampshire, England.
