History of the Hardy Boys


I read loads of these as a little guy. Even then I didn't believe there was really a guy named Franklin W. Dixon.

Turns out that McFarlane was from the Ottawa Valley. Apparently, he got about $100 bucks a book

Considering how many books were sold, $100 per seems criminal.
