"The twenty-five-cent paperbacks of the late 40's and early 50's led readers on a raucous dive through America's dark and sleazy world of drugs, sex, and violence. Over My Dead Body by Lee Server, author of Danger Is My Business : An Illustrated History Of The Fabulous Pulp Magazine : 1896 - 1953, takes us back in time to rediscover this wonderfully lurid era of American pop fiction." --- rear panel dust jacket promotional blurb.
