Longman Anthology of Detective Fiction
I had to get this book for a course I took at college on Mystery Fiction. The book itself is actually a great read, with an interesting collection of short stories in the worlds of the Amateur, Private and Police Detectives. A great introduction to reading of a specific genre of mystery fiction for anyone. Only dissapointment was that the binding spine started to come apart at the bottom, and this from only placing the book on a table and openeing the pages flat, not bending them back further or anything one handed.
