The Dunwich Horror and Others, by H.P. Lovecraft. 1963 Arkham House first edition hardcover. 431 pages, very nice condition.
A gorgeous Arkham House first edition (3000 print run). This is an important book, the first of three volumes that brought Lovecraft's fiction back into print. The best classic macabre tales of H. P. Lovecraft are to be found in this collection. The stories were selected and are introduced by August Derleth, who, with Donald Wandrei, collected and published the Lovecraft works. The tales are prefaced by an essay by Derleth on Lovecraft and his creative work, seen in retrospect of what was, as of its publication date, a quarter of a century after Lovecraft's death.
