Charles Daly King (1895-1963) was an American psychologist. He was educated at Newark Academy, Yale and Columbia University. After Army service in WW1 he trained in psychology and wrote several textbooks. In the 1930s he wrote seven detective novels while working in psychology. His detective, Michael Lord, is attached to the New York police department. Lord's cases are recounted by a Watson figure, Dr L Rees Pons. King coined the word 'Obelists' to describe suspects, and used it in three of his titles. Another series character, Trevis Tarrant, appears in a book of short stories. After Bermuda Burial (1940) King wrote no further fiction. ...more

Quotes by C. Daly King (?)

“But not toward other people. That is the function of women, to lead in all relationships between persons, and especially between men and women, because they are equipped for that and men are not. Until they do fulfil their function and take the leadership that is theirs, we shall have the stupid, ignorant, wasteful, appetitive world that is making all of us sick. But the difficulty is to find women who possess the intelligence.”
― C. Daly King, Obelists at Sea
