A Historian's Legacy

I was sorry to hear that prolific author and historian Scott Allen Nollen passed away yesterday at the age of 58. He leaves behind a legacy of more than 40 books, representing a lifetime of research and writing.

His output included books on film and music history, social justice, and literature, among other books. He was prolific despite suffering from chronic illness for much of his adult life.

A few months ago, I reviewed here one of his recent releases, Karloff and the East, written in collaboration with his wife, Yuyun Yuningsih Nollen. My condolences to her on a tragic loss.

Visit his publishers, McFarland & Company or BearManor Media, to learn more about this author whose work will long be remembered and appreciated.
