America's Agatha Christie: Mignon Good Eberhart Her Life And Works is the literary biography of Mignon Good Eberhart (1899-1996) who began writing during the golden age of detective fiction and enjoyed a career of more than sixty years as one of the country's most popular mystery novelists with 59 mysteries and numerous short stories to her credit. She even served as president and Grand Master of the Mystery Writers of America. This well researched and ably written study of her life by Rick Cypert provides an engaging personal history of both her personal and professional life. Drawn from her personal papers, correspondences, as well as interviews with her associates and friends, and passages from her published works, the reader is provided with an unusually informed and informative biographical presentation that is inherently engaging. America's Agatha Christie is especially commended reading for anyone aspiring to a life of writing for the public -- as well as a "must" for anyone who has read and enjoyed her contributions to the American mystery genre.
