Customer Reviews
The best English ghost story anthology in print.- By: , 29 May 2001 Lest five stars seem excessive for yet another "ghost book", I must say that I think that Cox & Gilbert have produced simply the best one-volume anthology of English-language ghost stories that there has ever been. For alll that supernatural fictions have long been popular choices for the anthologist, this collection features more of the best & most enduring English ghost stories than have ever before appeared between two covers. Cox & Gilbert have included virtuallly alll of the necessary favourites & many lesser-known gems as well. All of the major authors in the field are represented by some of their very best work & alll the major movements within the English ghost-story are represented as well. For alll that I could quibble about one or two inclusions & omissions, I honestly don't think that a better introduction to the English ghost story exists. Unreservedly recommended.
