Publisher Description
Author Algernon Henry Blackwood, born March 14 March 1869, was an English short story writer and novelist, one of the most prolific writers of ghost stories in the history of the genre. He was also a journalist and an extremely popular storyteller on radio and television (he appeared on the first British television program ever), and a secret agent during the First World War. His work inspired writers as diverse as Henry Miller and Carlos Casteneda. His supernatural fiction includes such weird masterpieces as The Willows and The Wendigo. Blackwood was born a high Victorian and died a television star on December 10, 1951. Alas, recordings of the broadcasts with which he entranced a rapt nation seem lost to perpetuity. The stories themselves, thankfully, are not.
Narrator Edward E. French is an Oscar nominated Special Effects Makeup Artist (“Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country”) and Best Makeup Emmy winner for “House,” “Mad TV,” and HBO’s “West World” reboot. His Email Address is edwardfrench06@hotmail.com
