Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Near Fine dj. 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. Illustrated by (dj illus) Richard Lamb (illustrator).…

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Near Fine dj. First Edition Thus. [sharp-looking copy, with no wear at all to book, and no internal markings; the jacket has the teensiest bit of surface wear (although you'll never notice it in its new mylar jacket cover)]. A new "augmented edition" of the author's only short-story collection, with tales ranging "from the idyllic to the macabre" -- mostly the latter, including the title story and the acknowledged classic "Whittington's Cat," about a young man tormented by a giant demonic feline. (The "augmentation" consists of a long Introduction about the author, by Christopher Roden, and the addition of two stories, "The Little Mermaid" and "No Ships Pass," that had not appeared in previous editions.) Although she lived only to the age of 43, Lady Smith racked up a lot of experience. Before she began turning out short fiction and the occasional novel in the early 1930s, she had already been a society reporter, a film critic and a circus publicist; she drew on all these careers to evoke, in her fiction, "the enchantment of the circus, the glamour of gypsydom, [and] the very spirit of the theatre." A number of her novels were adapted into British films in the 1930s and 1940s, and somehow she also found time to write a memoir of her travels, "Life's a Circus," published in 1939. The printing of this edition was limited to 500 copies. Illustrated by (dj painting) Paul Lowe (illustrator).…
