Gallegher

Description

Davis's beloved character of Gallegher--a crime-solving Philadelphia newsboy--is introduced in this collection of short stories. The character later inspired Walt Disney to create a series of the same name that aired to great popularity in the 1960s. In another story in the volume, "The Cynical Miss Catherwaight," Courtlandt Van Bibber resurfaces--a wealthy man about town who is Davis's signature creation.
