Masterpieces of Mystery: Detective Stories by Joseph Lewis French (ed.Sun77)
Requirements: ePUB reader, 0.5Mb
Overview: From the Foreword:
"The honour of founding the modern detective story belongs to an American writer. Such tales as “The Purloined Letter” and “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” still stand unrivalled.
We in America no more than the world of letters at large, did not readily realize what Poe had done when he created Auguste Dupin—the prototype of Sherlock Holmes et genus omnes, up to the present hour. On Poe’s work is built the whole school of French detective story writers. Conan Doyle derived his inspiration from them in turn, and our American writers of to-day are helped from both French and English sources..."
