Edgar Allan Poe was the possessor o; one of the most original imaginations the world has ever known. The inventor of the modern detective story, a master of the tale of horror, a poet of haunting melody, Poe has influenced the literature of many countries from his day to the present.
Here, in one volume, are the master- pieces of mystery, terror, humor, and adventure, and the finest lyric and narrative poetry by a strange genius who was one of America's supreme writers.
