Farewell Performance

H.R.Wakefield was one of the twentieth century’s most prolific writers of ghost stories, whose best tales rank alongside those of M R James and E F Benson. His spectral work has been available for decades only in expensive collectible editions. We present here a second selection of what we believe are his most powerful pieces, to follow ‘The Frontier Guards’ (also available from Incunabula). Included in this volume are:- ‘Old Man’s Beard’, Death of a Poacher’, ‘Out of the Wrack I Rise’ and ‘Monstrous Regiment’.
