English-born Arthur Upfield (1890-1964) was the author of several best-selling works of crime fiction in Australia during the 1930s. His first published item had appeared in London's Daily Mail in 1918. His novel, The Sands of Windee (1931), came under close scrutiny from the authorities during a Western Australian murder investigation, known as the Murchison Mystery Case, when the fictional method of disposing of a corpse had been replicated in real life by the murderer John Thomas Smith, alias Snowy Rowles. - Scope and ContentMLMSS 7095/1/1
