Edited by Joseph Lewis French, this collection of 9 riddle stories includes ‘The Mysterious Card’ and its sequel by Cleveland Moffett, ‘The Oblong Box’ by Poe, ‘A Terribly Strange Bed’ by Wilkie Collins, ‘The Lost Room’ by Fitz-James O’Brien and others selected as masterful examples of the genre by the editor. He says in the forward:
‘A distinguished American writer of fiction said to me lately: ‘Did you ever think of the vital American way we live? We are always going after mental gymnastics.’ Now the mystery story is mental gymnastics. … The stories of this collection cover a wide range and are the choice of reading in several literatures.’
