A little about the book
The March 1923 debut issue of Weird Tales brings several kinds of strange fiction together in one magazine.
Readers of the first issue met unrelated stories side by side, along with the commercial matter of a working magazine. That mixture makes it possible to see how horror, adventure and the fantastic were sold to the same audience.
