The Oxford book of Victorian detective stories
About This Book
"Detective stories, with their ingeniously devised plots and emphasis on the power of deduction, were beloved by the Victorians. Here, Michael Cox has assembled thirty-one of the finest examples of the genre with contributions from such major figures as Edgar Allan Poe, J.S. Le Fanu, Charles Dickens, Wilkie Collins, Baroness Orczy, and Arthur Conan Doyle, as well as a host of less familiar writers."--Jacket.
