Information that will not surprise those who know me, Achmed Abdullah will be the summary of the Wendigo # 1 with "Fear" (in Detective Story Magazine 3 February 1919) A short story typical of his production and mixing exotic lived adventure, all with a touch of fantasy and a touch of horror. But this time the author takes us away from Chinese and Muslim world that made his reputation on an expedition gone awry in the depths of Africa (translated by Rémy new Lechevalier.) Other unpublished follow him.
Born in Crimea in 1881 and son of an aristocrat Russian and princess Afghan Achmed Abdullah was an adventurer and a spy to life impression of legend and mystery before its installation in the U.S. during the 1910s and the beginning of a prolific and brilliant career in the major pulp magazines, newspapers and magazines "chic" that ended with his death in 1945 following heart problems. It also left many books behind him and touched about the film: he was also nominated for an Oscar for best screenplay in 1935 as co-author of the Bengal Lancers Three with Gary Henry Hathaway Cooper.
