Post, Melville Davisson, The Methods of Uncle Abner, Aspen Press, CO., 1974, first edition, A classic collection featuring the brilliant backwoods detective Uncle Abner, created by Melville Davisson Post, one of America's earliest and most respected myste…ry writers. Set in pre-Civil War Virginia, these stories showcase Abner's moral clarity and shrewd intellect as he solves baffling crimes and confronts human greed, deceit, and sin. Often compared to Poe's Dupin and Holmes for his deductive brilliance, Uncle Abner remains a cornerstone figure in detective fiction history. Fine in a fine unclipped dust jacket, clean and bright with only the faintest touch of age toning. A handsome collectible edition of a seminal mystery classic.
