Beschreibung

Dodo Collections brings you another classic from W.W Jacobs, ‘Dialstone Lane.’

 

No less a personage than the great Mark Twain was a fan of this book. In a small English town, a retired sea Captain comes to live who beguiles the natives with exaggerated tales, he come unstuck however when things get out of hand and an alleged map of buried treasure is stolen.

 

William Wymark Jacobs was an English author of short stories and novels. Quite popular in his lifetime primarily for his amusing maritime tales of life along the London docks (many of them humorous as well as sardonic in tone). Today he is best known for a few short works of horror fiction. One being "The Monkey's Paw"(published 1902). It has in its own right become a well-known and widely anthologized classic.
