Octavo, original pictorial wrappers (trade paperback format). 284 pp. Issued as a volume in the publisher's "Classics of Gothic Horror" series. "First Edition" and correct number code on copyright page, but the "Lightning Source" colophon on the terminal leaf identifies this as a print-on-demand paperback. A fine copy. This volume contains the weird stories of two leading American short story writers of the early 20th century, Irvin S. Cobb (1876-1944) and Gouverneur Morris (1876-1953). Both are known for a single weird tale, "Fishhead" and "Back There in the Grass," respectively; but both produced several additional weird specimens in their variegated short story collections, ranging from grim tales of psychological suspense ("The Gallowsmith") to tales of Nietzschean supermen ("The Bride's Dead"). This volume constitutes the first time that their weird work has been collected. Table of Contents: Introduction, by S. T. Joshi Irvin S.
