First edition. Octavo, illustrated boards. Part one of the book is five annotated checklists of horror fiction: "The Gothic Romance 1762-1820" by Frederick S. Frank (422 entries); "The Residual Gothic Impulse 1824-1873" by Benjamin Franklin Fisher IV (101 entries); "Psychological, Antiquarian, and Cosmic Horror 1872-1919" by Jack Sullivan (260 entries); "The Modern Masters 1920-1980" by Gary William Crawford (311 entries); and "The Horror Pulps 1933-1940" by Robert Weinberg (15 entries). Part two of is "Supernatural Verse in English" by Steve Eng (64 entries). Part three, pages 455-520, comprise "reference sources,"largely complied by Mike Ashley. The reference section is dated; Crawford's contribution is poor, Weinberg's superseded, the remainder are excellent, especially Eng on supernatural verse. ".while Tymn's book undeniably has been supplanted as a reader's guide by Barron [Horror Literature. (1990)], ironically his material still retains enormous worth and validity as a synthesis of eighteenth-, nineteenth-, and early twentieth-century horror and Gothic literature, and should be retained by both libraries and scholars for that purpose. Many of the books covered in the earlier sections by Tymn are analyzed in no other source." - Burgess, Reference Guide to Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror 78. [Reference: Anatomy of Wonder (1987) 8-52. Barron (ed), Fantasy Literature 6-33. Barron (ed), Horror Literature 6-33. Burgess, Reference Guide to Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror (2002) 102].
