Shorty McCabe Gets The Hail is a novel written by Sewell Ford and first published in 1919. The book follows the adventures of the titular character, Shorty McCabe, a tough-talking, street-smart New Yorker who finds himself in a series of dangerous and hilarious situations. In this particular story, McCabe is hired by a wealthy businessman to investigate a group of con artists who are using a fake hailstorm to defraud farmers out of their crops. Along the way, McCabe must navigate a cast of colorful characters, including a beautiful young woman who may or may not be involved in the scam, a corrupt sheriff, and a gang of ruthless criminals. As McCabe delves deeper into the case, he finds himself in increasingly perilous situations, including a high-speed car chase and a dramatic shootout. But with his quick wit and street smarts, he is able to outsmart his enemies and bring the con artists to justice. With its fast-paced action, witty dialogue, and colorful characters, Shorty McCabe Gets The Hail is a classic piece of early 20th-century pulp fiction that will delight fans of the genre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
