Books by August Derleth

This volume is a facsimile reprint of AMRA, the 2-time Hugo Award-winning sword and sorcery fanzine edited by George H. Scithers. It presented artwork, fiction, poetry, non-fiction, and a lively letter column and featured some of the most famous fantasy, horror, and science fiction writers, editors, and artists. Vol. 2, No. 2 is the third issue, originally published in 1959. This volume features contributions from John W. Campbell, Jr., Karen Anderson, August Derleth, Thomas Stratton, W.H. Griffey and Franklin Bergquist.

The author of this book was a chronicler whose ear was close to the northern Wisconsin ground. In his Sac Prairie Saga, of which ""Walden West"" is the crowning volume, he captures the essences of midwestern village life with his distinctive combination of narrative and prose-poetry.
