Includes Preliminary Page Note by The Editors; Acknowledgments; and About the Authors.

Illustrated with a double-page color frontispiece painting and color illustrated front and rear endpapers. "Great American Mystery Stories of the Twentieth Century presents an impressive array of writers. These literary sleuths - American writers who hail from all over the United States and even abroad - offer stories that reflect the varied experiences of a vast and culturally diverse country. The authors in this collection have garnered innumerable honors, from myriad awards conferred by their own mystery-writing colleagues to the Nobel Prize in Literature; they all share the writer's greatest reward, however, the broad readership and popular acclaim that can only come from creating superb, entertaining tales. Some of these mystery masters have left an indelible mark on the reading public by creating characters that have entered the national consciousness. The Saint, Lew Archer, Travis McGee, Uncle Abner - these names are real to mystery aficionados who know them well and have learned much about life from them. Other writers have given birth to characters who live only in one brief tale, making readers regret that they won't meet them again. Although the modern American mystery story has only recently gained respectability as the subject of academic study, the genre is an integral part of this country's literature. In fact, it stands at the very center of a markedly American literary offering, the short story. Edgar Allan Poe, the creator of the short story form, based the world's first mystery tale on the crime story, a style of fiction that originally appeared in the beginning of the nineteenth century. He enhanced the elements in these negligible stories with such genius that he lifted his own tales to the level of art. Poe's "The Murder in the Rue Morgue," first published in 1841, has been called by one critic "the single most important story in the history of the genre." Subsequent literary detectives may have occasionally felt daunted by following the mystery story's inimitable forefather; still, they have made their own distinctive contributions to this uniquely American literary form. Among them, the twenty-three writers in this anthology of American mystery masterpieces have written hundreds of memorable stories. Choosing the writers - not to mention the stories - from a national treasure of literary excellence was indeed difficult. The sheer number of outstanding American mystery stories offers endless hours of reading pleasure. To this day, superlative writers apply their varied skills to the genre first explored by Edgar Allan Poe. Readers new to this literary terrain will enjoy finding their way to some of mystery's hidden corners - as well as its landmarks. - The Editors" - from the Preliminary Page.

8vo. 88 pp. Photo illustrations, tables, historiated vignettes at upper fore-edges of text pages throughout. Beige-printed softcovers, salmon-coloured outline map of Montana on front cover, border in burgandy (minor chipping head & foot of spine, & to couple corners, minor dustsoiling), still VG- copy. First edition of this exceedingly scarce original and well illustrated report. The Montana Legislature in 1913-1914 codified a number of fish and game laws, and established the Game and Fish Commission in order to adjust hunting seasons, bag limits, license hunters and fishermen who were rapidly decreasing the numbers of game animals and fish, as well as try and legislate against water pollution through cyanide, and other pollutants introduced by mining interests in the State. Montana had established a number of fish hatcheries to feed many of the small landlocked lakes & ponds which were rapidly being depleted by intrepid sportsmen dynamiting the habitats and harvesting the fish. There are descriptions of hunting bear in Flathead County, with a photo of the "Famous Lady Hunter" standing over her trophy; descriptions of deer hunting and remonstrations against poachers, especially with those continuing to kill the "Bull Moose" which had been barred by State law. Of additional interest are the photos and detailed description of the Montana State "Fish Car 'Thymallus'" featuring banks of specially fitted aerated aquariums for transporting hatchery fish for license paying sportsmen, followed by tables of the 10s of 1000s of fish released. Also included are statistics on poaching arrests, jail sentences, and fines. Worldcat locates copies (UCLA, NOAA Woods Hole), Yale holds an edition issued in 1914 for the Northern Pacific Railway with 75 pp.; See: Diann Ericson, The Legislative and Political Development of the Montana Department of Fish Wildlife and Parks (1895-1921): A Case of Cultural Heritage (1994).
