Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine dj. Illustrated by (dj illus) Richard Lamb (illustrator). Expanded edition. [no discernible wear to book, although a handful of pages have short diagonal creases at the upper corners from having been turned down as markers (why, oh why? -- this is why BOOKMARKS were invented, people!), and the former owner's initials plus date & place of purchase are written in ink on recto of rear endpaper; the jacket is flawless apart from some very slight wrinkling at the bottom of the rear panel]. (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." This is an expanded edition of a book first published in 1989, "augmented by a further eleven stories, most of which have not been seen since their original book publication more than eighty years ago. Lamb's revised introduction also makes use of new biographical information which has only recently come to light, providing the most comprehensive look available at this forgotten master of terror." This first printing was limited to 600 copies.
