Coachwhip does a praiseworthy job in releasing this out-of-copyright and yet (at least at some point of time) justifiably famous stories in a handy volume, using good quality paper, and without any typo-s. The stories constitute a mixed bag, but the three classic stories here (written by Arthur Conan Doyle, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Ambrose Bierce, were very good. Blackwood's story is a famous but grossly inflated & overwritten piece, but the other stories were readable, but only once.
