The Shadow On The Dial, and Other Essays (annotated) by Ambrose Bierce
The Shadow On The Dial, and Other Essays is a classic American essay collection by the great American author and humorist, Ambrose Bierce. The essays cover a wide range of subjects, embracing among other things government, dreams, writers of dialect, and dogs, and always the author's point of view is fresh, original and non-Philistine. Whether one cares to agree with him or not, one will find vast entertainment in his wit that illuminates with lightning flashes all he touches. Other qualities I forbear allusion to, having already encroached too much upon the time of the reader.
