"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.

Book First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. One of 54 (60) copies set in Garamond, printed on heavy Somerset paper in Thame (by Christine Tacq) and signed by both artists. Illustrated with six woodcuts by Jose San Martin and eight etchings (and embossing) by Christine Tacq. This, one of 19 copies specially boxed in a solander case (lined with Kahdi paper to echo the colour of tarnished copper), with a folder of four signed etchings, and copper strips set into the grey cloth boards. A fine copy. In the etched and relief-printed 'A' that opens the book, Christine Tacq has sought to recover Blake's mystery method of printing. More etchings unfold to celebrate the visionary in the everyday and Blake's instructions for creating a book. They begin in a London railway station and end in the new British Library, drawing from the British Museum's Enlightenment Gallery, a random collection of creature images from around the world. Copies with odd numbers are with Jose San Martin. Copies with even numbers are bound by the Fine Book Bindery, of which ten special solander cases are lined with Kahdi paper. Copies 2-20 have copper strips set in the covers; copies 22-54 are held in a slipcase. 6 copies are inscribed A/P. Signed by Author(s).
