The Best of Manhunt 2

"From its first issue, Manhunt declared itself different. For one thing, all the stories were

claimed to be new and remained that way until near the end. And many of the early

contributors were familiar names from hardcover publishing, including William Irish

(a.k.a. Cornell Woolrich), Kenneth Millar (as himself and as John Ross Macdonald),

Eleazar Lipsky, Bruno Fischer, Craig Rice, Harold Q. Masur, Leslie Charteris, William

Lindsay Gresham, Henry Kane, and David Goodis...


"The essence of Manhunt was not the private eye story, though it published plenty of

them. What set it apart was what is now called noir fiction, a term often thrown around

very loosely but in its purest form concerning a flawed but not necessarily unsympathetic

protagonist who will not have a happy outcome."

-from the Introduction by Jon L. Breen
