About this audiobook
Thirteen short stories by one of the most famous writers in his day. Robert Barr was a British Canadian short story writer and novelist, born in Glasgow, Scotland. Most of his literary output was of the crime genre, then quite in vogue. A delightful compilation of short stories. I'm not sure I've ever read a book that gathers such a variety of genres. Barr included everything from the standard love story to a couple ghost stories.
