Hardcover. Condition: Acceptable. Dust Jacket Condition: Acceptable. Light/moderate wear to the binding. Spine cloth is soiled. Bump to the top fore-edge of the front board. No slope, no twist to the book from reading or improper shelving. Pages are tight and clean with no marks. There is the tide line of a water stain to the fo…re-edge of the text block. This does not affect the reading surfaces of the pages. Previous owner's name in ink on the front flyleaf. No odor. The dust jacket is rough: quite edge worn, shabby. Next owner may wish to discard it. But in the meantime the dust jacket is in a protector to prevent further damage. Given the cosmetic issues discussed, best to regard this as a reading copy.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 2nd State. 2nd state copy with red cloth binding and error corrected on page 66 (left on line one). This copy is in Near Fine condition and is lacking a dust jacket. The book and its contents are in mostly clean, bright condition. There is some beginning rubbing to the spine ends of the book cove…r. The text pages are clean and bright. Both endpapers have some beginning generalized toning. "Lovecraft's essay ranges widely, but he first examines the beginnings of weird fiction in the early gothic novel. As a guide for what to read in the early gothic he relied partly on Edith Birkhead's 1921 historical survey The Tale of Terror, and he was also able to draw on the expertise of the great many experts and collectors in his circle. The bulk of the essay was written in New York City giving Lovecraft easy access to the resources of the city's great public libraries and also to the collections of his friends, and thus he was able to read widely and obtain obscure and rare works. His survey then proceeds to outline the development of the supernatural and the weird in the work of major writers such as Ambrose Bierce, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Edgar Allan Poe. Lovecraft names as the four "modern masters" of horror: Algernon Blackwood, Lord Dunsany, M. R. James, and Arthur Machen. In addition to these masters, Lovecraft attempts to make the essay an encompassing survey, and thus he mentions or notes many others in passing." (from Wikipedia).
