The Story of Elrond Hubbard
In 1932, Elrond Hubbard submitted his first finished short story for publication. He wrote about a 12 year old child soldier in China on a march to die horribly in a battle.

That summer he decided to launch an expedition that would explore abandoned pirate strongholds and film themselves running around in pirate costumes.
