Product Description
NOTE: This edition has a linked "Table of Contents" and has been beautifully formatted (searchable and interlinked) to work on your Amazon e-book reader.
This well-written, action-packed volume contains all three Mucker novels:
Book One: The Mucker
Book Two: The Return of the Mucker
Book Three: The Oakdale Affair
Pirates. Head-hunting samurai. Lost civilizations. Pirates and dames. Just another day in the life of Billy Byrne, the Mucker. Follow the misadventures of Byrne as he's forced into a life of crime that takes him from the slums of Chicago all the way to piracy and adventure in the South Seas.
Billy Byrne was a product of the streets and alleys of Chicago's great West Side. From Halsted to Robey, and from Grand Avenue to Lake Street, there was scarce a bartender whom Billy knew not by his first name. And, in proportion to their number which was considerably less, he knew the patrolmen and plain clothes men equally as well, but not so pleasantly.
The Mucker is considered by some to be Burroughs' finest novel, and its hero, Billy Byrne, his greatest character. The action starts out on the gritty post-World War I Chicago streets. Later, our hero travels to the South Seas, meets up with some pirates, a lost race of Japanese, and even Pancho Villa. Don't pass this one up!
