Welcome to the Website of John Dunning and Old Algonquin Books

Five John Dunning mysteries beginning with Booked to Die feature Cliff Janeway, bookseller and ex-Denver cop. John has also written a mystery about old-time radio in New Jersey in 1942, an extensive encyclopedia on old-time radio, a novel about Denver in the 1920s, and three other earlier mysteries. We only carry a few of John's books, but you should be able to find many of them in your favorite new or used book store in either hardback, paperback, audio books or electronic books.

John's novel Denver about a newspaper reporter and the influence of the Ku Klux Klan in Denver in the 1920s has recently been reissued by Scribner as a print-on-demand book directly from the publisher and in e-book format. The original of this book is fairly hard to find. On the Air, the old time radio encyclopedia, is also now available in ebook format. For more information click beside John's picture at right.

Old Algonquin Books has been in business since 1984; the first 10 years as an open bookshop in Denver. The owners, John and Helen Dunning, are founding members of the Rocky Mountain Antiquarian Booksellers Association RMABA.
