Voelker wrote his first story, "Lost All Night in a Swamp with a Bear" at age 12. [7] He started his professional writing career in 1933 when he returned to Ishpeming from Chicago. His first published piece was a short story called "Iron" that appeared in the February 1934 issue of American Scene. [11] He assumed a pen name, "Robert Traver," the first name from a brother who died serving with the U.S. Navy in World War I, and the last name from his mother's maiden name. He used a pseudonym because, in his words, he "didn't think the taxpayers would fancy [him] doing [his] scribbling on their time". [7] His first novel, Troubleshooter was published in 1943. He wrote by hand on yellow legal pads. In 1951, his second novel, Danny and the Boys was published, followed by Small Town D.A. in 1954. These three autobiographical books focused on legal themes and did not sell very well. [7] Time felt that it was well-paced, well-acted, and that the explicit language was warranted within the film's context. [25] Danny and the Boys, Being Some Legends of Hungry Hollow.

That being said – and being allowed to take off an invisible half star from the rating (so on LibraryThing it's 4.5) – I enjoyed the hell out of this book. The film version was directed and produced by Otto Preminger, but – rape aside – I could easily see this as a Capra film. The blurring of right and wrong – who's lying? And why? What exactly is the truth, and should this man be allowed out of jail? – side by side with the sort of fervent idealism Jimmy Stewart should have had a patent on … again, whoever was at the helm, it's the perfect 50's movie.
