Great American Detective Stories by Various Authors PDF
1945 collection of American Detective Stories.
In his spirited Introduction to a topnotch collection of Great American Detective Stories, Anthony Boucher says: "The detective short story belongs to us. It started in America and it started off magnificently. In five stories, Edgar Allan Poe created the form and almost all its possible variants. . . . There are as many kinds of detective short stories as there are of detective novels—and you’ll find most of them here, from the ethical poetry of Melville Davisson Post to the brash foolery of Frank Gruber.”
A glance at some of the titles of the stories included confirms Boucher’s modest words and guarantees that you’ll find plenty of good reading here.
