Most famous for his stories of mystery and horror, he was one of the first American short story writers, and is widely considered to be the inventor of the detective fiction genre.

Gordon Pym (Continued)", "Ligeia", "How to Write a Blackwood Article", "A Predicament", "Silence: A Fable", "The Devil in the Belfry", "The Man That Was Used Up", "The Fall of the House of Usher", and "William Wilson". Many antiquarian books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
