A short story of a grisly ride through a blizzard with a corpse! The Last Drive by Carl Jacobi, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.

Carl Richard Jacobi was an author and resident of Minneapolis Minnesota his entire life.

Born in Minneapolis in 1908 Jacobi was a voracious reader as a youngster reading Jules Verne, Edgar Allan Poe and H.G. Wells. He was a writer early in life. In junior high he created his own dime novels and sold them to fellow students.

After college he followed a career path chosen by many aspiring writers, that of a newspaper reporter for the Minneapolis Star.

His first short story, Mive, first appeared in Minnesota Quarterly in 1928. Jacobi would write more than 100 short stories in his career which spanned more than 60 years. His 6th published story appeared in the June 1933 issue of Weird Tales. Turn to page 778 for The Last Drive by Carl Jacobi…
