A Pity It's Out of Print

I was given this volume as a gift many years ago and have gladly kept it. It contains some of his best work and best-worked themes: the supernatural in nature represented here by "Running Wolf", "The Valley of the Beasts", and, to an extent, "The Lost Valley". "The Trod" is one of his better stories, "The Doll" quite good. Only "The Wendigo", one of his very best, is missing. The tales, though not stylish, are reasonably well-crafted, reflecting his well-travelled life with their various locales. Let's hope this book will soon be reprinted.
