Ellen Glasgow was an influential female writer, and an important chronicler of the old South. 'The Shadowy Third', first published in 1923, represents an excellent early example of the 'Southern Gothic' genre. Many of the earliest ghost stories, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
