The Lost Valley and Other Stories

Algernon Blackwood · Eveleigh Nash, London · 1910

The census claim is confirmed: London, Eveleigh Nash, 1910 is the true first, and it carries the first appearance in print of 'The Wendigo,' the volume's most reprinted story. The collection gathers ten tales: 'The Lost Valley,' 'The Wendigo,' 'Old Clothes,' 'Perspective,' 'The Terror of the Twins,' 'The Man from the Gods,' 'The Man Who Played Upon the Leaf,' 'The Price of Wiggins's Orgy,' 'Carlton's Drive,' and 'The Eccentricity of Simon Parnacute.' No contemporary American edition is recorded, so the Nash issue stands alone for precedence.
