Produktbeschreibung

Published in 1891, this collection of 26 bone-chilling short stories is set during the American Civil War. It is divided, as the title suggests, between tales of soldiers and tales of civilians. Many have a strong element of horror or the supernatural, such as the justly famous "The Incident at Owl Creek Bridge."

Autorenporträt

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) was an American short-story writer, journalist, and critic. He is known for his collection, Write it Right and a volume of ironic definitions, The Devil's Dictionary. Disillusioned with American life, he moved to Mexico in 1913, where he vanished without a trace.
