Tom Chaney R714: The Bookman as Detective Of writers and their books. Review of The Cliff Janeway novels by author John Dunning. Review First printed 4 June 2006. The next latest Tom Chaney column: Memory of Old Jack. Review of novel with Kentucky theme by Kentucky author Wendell Berry By Tom Chaney bookstore@scrtc.com The bookman as detectiveJohn Dunning hit the world of mystery writers and booksellers with a double whammy back in the early nineties.

100 Years ago, from June 14, 2011: There was none of this stuff of bankers turning down loan applicants while wearing golf shirts or lascivious behavior of women showing bare skin below the neck and navels.
