A classic tale of horror set against the backdrop of a hunting trip in the Canadian wilderness. Algernon Blackwood deftly and subtly pits his human characters against the immensity of nature. Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951) was a masterful teller of supernatural tales, and his influence can be felt in later writers ranging from H.P. Lovecraft and J.R.R. Tolkien to Stephen King.
