Tons of good reading
If you wanted to get to know Poe this is a good way to do it. You don't have to start at the front either. I love this book and I would highly reccomend it to anyone.

The Best Poe Book
I got hold of the book while in middle school and it has been on my shelf ever since. Everything Poe contained in one massive book. It helped to stop sorting through anthologies to find a particular tale. I fully encouage people to read this book. Poe is the true master of horror. His work is still creepy and entertaining.
