H B Marriott-Watson

Henry Brereton Marriott Watson was one of the more prolific authors of his day, turning out novels and collections of short stories which won him a reputation as one of the better, and better-known, writers of his time. Although he was best known for his tales of swashbuckling adventure and historical romance, he occasionally turned his hand to the weird, the supernatural, and the horrific, scattering these tales throughout his seventeen collections of short stories.
