The Black Lion Inn Alfred Henry Lewis

... One evening while we were together about the fireplace of my parlor, I was for having up a bottle of sherry... American investigative journalist, lawyer, novelist, editor, and short story writer. As an investigative journalist, Lewis wrote extensively about corruption in New York politics. This was the subject of his book The Boss, and How He Came to Rule New York. As a writer of genre fiction, his most successful works were in his Wolfville series of Western fiction.
