The Brass Bowl
Louis Joseph Vance (September 19, 1879-December 16, 1933) was an American novelist, born in Washington, D. C., and educated in the preparatory department of the Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute. He wrote short stories and verse after 1901, then composed many popular novels. His character "Michael Lanyard," also known as "The Lone Wolf," was featured in eight books and 24 films between 1914 and 1949, and also appeared in radio and television series. Vance was separated from his wife (whom he had married in 1898 and who had borne him a son in 1899) when he was found dead in 1933. He was in a burnt armchair inside his New York apartment. A cigarette had ignited some benzene (used for cleaning his clothes or for his broken jaw) that he had on his body, and he had been intoxicated at the time of death. He had recently returned from the West Indies, where he had gathered material for a new book. The death was ruled accidental.

The Original Louis Joseph Vance
A FICTION HOUSE PRESS FACSIMILE REPRINT: The hero, Michael Lanyard (THE LONE WOLF), was a jackal reared in the brooding shadows through which slips the mysterious Seine. The story opens with Lanyard as a boy, a cub taught by pain and experience that the stroking of kindly hands was as naught compared with the fang of a single foe. And so this creature of the shadows, in the beginning driven by hunger, though in the end stimulated by pride in his art, prowled from the slums of Paris into the very halls of the mighty. At the zenith of his fame something settled upon THE LONE WOLF'S heart. The wild look of hatred went out of his eyes, the snarl bred of pain died in his throat. In this story Louis Joseph Vance discloses a new angle of his powers. It is the love story in the life of THE LONE WOLF that makes it human.

The Lone Wolf
The origin story of the Lone Wolf, master criminal with a conscience One rainy winter night, an orphan is abandoned to the care of a shabby Parisian inn called Troyon’s. For the next eleven years, the boy is up before dawn to clean and fetch and serve, his only respite the closet to which he retires at night and the books he pilfers from the hotel’s guests. A few francs here and there also find their way into his pockets, but not so much that anyone would notice—anyone, that is, except Bourke, the cultivated Irish thief who regularly hides out at Troyon’s. Caught red-handed, the amateur outwits the professional. Turn me over to the innkeepers, he says, and I’ll go to the police wit...
