***
Nick Carter debuted in the September 18, 1886 issue of Street & Smith's New York Weekly in John Russell Coryell's story, "The Old Detective's Pupil." Predating the introduction of Sherlock Holmes by more than a year, Nick Carter quickly became America's most popular dime novel sleuth, eventually appearing in more than a thousand adventures
The writer who wrote these stories produced no other type of fiction and knew more about writing detective stories than any other single person. His mind was concentrated upon the creation of new plots and situations in which his hero emerged triumphantly from all sorts of trouble, and landed the criminal just where he should be—behind the bars.
Nick Carter stands for an interesting detective story. The the writing style of this book is uniformly good because it is entirely due to the work, of a specialist.
