This was a decent anthology featuring twenty stories from various eras. The book was published in 1984, so there are no contempory writers included. I had previously read approximately half the stories. I thought that the editor Bill Pronzini demonstrated a remarkable amount of chutzpah to include one of his stories in the volume. Granted, he has won many awards for various works but I didn't think that the sample incuded here was of the same quality as some of the other classics. Overall, I enjoyed the stories and would recommend the book.
