The sagas of Jimmie Cordie and his crew of soldiers of fortune were among Argosy Magazine's most popular series when it was brought to that magazine during its early '30s renaissance by writer W. Wirt. Quite clearly an inspiration for the creation of Doc Savage, this edition collects his next four adventures which originally appeared in Argosy in 1932-33: "War Dragons," "The Devil's Tattoo," "A Manchu Robin Hood," and "The Face in the Rock."
