As the concluding book in the series, Tully looks back at subjects from the previous four Underworld books. There are hobo stories that would have fit well in \u003cem\u003eBeggars of Life\u003c\/em\u003e, there are Hughie Tully's stories that could have come from \u003cem\u003eShanty Irish\u003c\/em\u003e, the Great Slavinsky would have been at home in \u003cem\u003eCircus Parade\u003c\/em\u003e, and there are grifters who could have plied their trade in \u003cem\u003eShadows of Men\u003c\/em\u003e. There's also the brutal description of the 1906 World Lightweight title fight between Joe Gans and Battling Nelson. The fight went an incredible 42 rounds in 100 degree heat and Tully's description is as tough and vicious as anything that would later appear in Tully's classic boxing novel, \u003cem\u003eThe Bruiser\u003c\/em\u003e. And in the chapter \"Ladies in the Parlor,\" Tully describes the women who work in a brothel with sympathy but without romanticizing them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 364\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 7.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 04, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749364597024,"sku":"9781948986694","price":35.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/65d86901697597719a91fcdd0e3fe4a0.webp?v=1779931028","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/blood-on-the-moon-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
