(B&W photo frontispiece) A collection of short stories by Capes (1854-1918), including "some of the most imaginative tales of terror of his era: stories of werewolves and the Wandering Jew, of lost souls and vengeful suicides, of horrors from beyond the grave which enfold the unsuspecting."

Hard Cover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. First Edition. Collection of weird fiction by these Alsatian authors, who began their collaboration in 1847, finally finding success in the 1860s with French historical fiction.

Editor Lamb began including their tales in anthologies, and a collection was published by Millington in 1981, most of which appear to have vanished after that publisher's bankruptcy. This better-fated collection adds a few tales. Hardcover in jacket, as pictured; near fine in near fine jacket, clean & unmarked; one of 500 printed. Size: Octavo. …
