To a lesser extent, his irascible Professor Challenger is known to generations of readers. But Conan Doyle was a prolific writer who produced a large body of work ranging from non-fiction and full-length novels to a wide-ranging collection of short stories. The stories in this volume were originally published separately as short stories in various magazines at various times, and some have also appeared in other collections. This particular collection of stories, titled as "Tales of Terror and Mystery," was first published together in 1923. The present volume contains examples of Conan Doyle's not-infrequent forays into the off-beat, the macabre, the mystical and the mysterious. While he became a full-blown spiritualist and paranormal enthusiast later in life, tales of a "dark side" nature were part of his repertoire from fairly early in his career. Doyle fans may be amused to note a few incidental references to "a certain well-known amateur detective" in these pages, perhaps Doyle's way of exacting a little revenge on the character he came to resent for overshadowing his other work. We are pleased to make this collection available, and hope you enjoy reading it as much as we have enjoyed preparing it.

Book excerpt: The whole voyage was an unpleasant one, and Captain Mackrie, of the Anglo-Malay Company's steamship Nicobar, had at last some excuse for the ill-temper that had made him notorious and unpopular in the company's marine staff. Although the fourth and fifth mates in the seclusion of their berth ventured deeper in their search for motives, and opined that the "old man" had made a deal less out of this voyage than usual, the company having lately taken to providing its own stores; so that "makings" were gone clean and "cumshaw" (which means commission in the trading lingo of the China seas) had shrunk small indeed. In confirmation they adduced the uncommonly long face of the steward (the only man in the ship satisfied with the skipper), whom the new regulations hit with the same blow. But indeed the steward's dolor might well be credited to the short passenger list, and the unpromising aspect of the few passengers in the eyes of a man accustomed to gauge one's tip-yielding capacity a month in advance. For the steward it was altogether the wrong time of year, the wrong sort of voyage, and certainly the wrong sort of passengers. So that doubtless the confidential talk of the fourth and fifth officers was mere youthful scandal. At any rate, the captain had prospect of a good deal in private trade home, for he had been taking curiosities and Japanese oddments aboard (plainly for sale in London) in a way that a third steward would have been ashamed of, and which, for a captain, was a scandal and an ignominy; and he had taken pains to insure well for the lot. These things the fourth and fifth mates often spoke of, and more than once made a winking allusion to, in the presence of the third mate and the chief engineer, who laughed and winked too, and sometimes said as much to the second mate, who winked without laughing; for of such is the tittle-tattle of shipboard.
