The Outsider and Others

The Outsider and Others, published in 1939, is the first book issued by Arkham House and the first ever collection of H. P. Lovecraft's fiction. The stories included were selected by August Derleth and Donald Wandrei; the use of "The Outsider" as the title story had been suggested by Lovecraft for a proposed collection to be published by Weird Tales editor Farnsworth Wright.
The book was issued in an edition of 1,268 copies, which sold out by 1944; the collection has never been reprinted. The cover art was by noted fantasy artist Virgil Finlay.
The collection included Lovecraft's classic essay "Supernatural Horror in Literature", which appeared there for the first time in its complete revised form.
