A collection of short stories, this work features some of William Wymark Jacobs' most beloved tales, blending humor with macabre elements. Originally published in 1911, it showcases Jacobs' transition from a civil service clerk to a celebrated writer. Although primarily known for his humorous narratives, he gained lasting recognition for his darker stories, especially "The Monkey's Paw" and "The Toll House," which are included in this anthology. The book is republished with a new introductory biography, providing context for Jacobs' literary contributions.
