A Night on the Borders of the Black Forest Amelia B. Edwards Widely-recognised as an authority on Egypt and a celebrated archaeologist, Amelia B. Edwards also engaged in journalism and wrote novels, poetry and short fiction throughout her life. She was a regular contributor to Dickens' All the Year Round. Born in London in 1831, she spent the early part of her career as a novelist. At the age of thirty, after the death of her parents, she embarked on a life of travel that led her through Europe to Egypt, where she was active in the excavation of the Temple of Rameses II. She wrote several travel guides, the most famous of which is A Thousand Miles up the Nile. She died in 1892 after a severe bout of influenza. A Night on the Borders of the Black Forest was published in New York in 1890 by the Frederick A. Stokes Company. It was largely ignored by British publishers at the time. The stories in this exquisitely written volume combine the best of the Victorian supernatural tale with the nascent mystery story. Prepare to be thrilled and disturbed in equal measure.
