Notes
"Even today, in a certain sleepy Pennsylvania village, they talk of the events of that summer in which a nameless Thing came to trouble the countryside, bringing terror and death with it." Previously published in U.K. by Duckworth in 1913; this 1st U.S. edition has minor textual differences. Harper Williams is a pseudonym of Margery Williams Bianco, author of "The Velveteen Rabbit."
