Book Description
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) has been a widely read, often controversial, author for more than a hundred years, but until now there has been no exhaustive collection of his short fiction. This new edition, both comprehensive and chronological, reveals the broad range of fiction that Bierce mastered. Volume I covers the years 1868 to 1886 and includes nearly 150 stories from Bierce's early period, among them "Pernicketty's Fright," "The Grateful Bear," and "Why I Am Not Editing 'The Stinger.'"
