| Stacpoole, author of the classic novel The Blue Lagoon, weaves his special magic throughout this collection of shorter works from the pulp magazines of the early 20th century. Here are tales full of the languor of the tropics, the hypnotism of the "meadows of gold," and the "eternal song" of the Southern Seas -- combined with mystery, romance, adventure, and the lyrical prose of a master storyteller!
