This acclaimed collection - perhaps the finest of short American detective stories - chronicles the crime-solving exploits of a powerful mind and moral figure in the 19th-century Appalachian wilderness. Uncle Abner employs shrewd deductive skills and his faith-based sense of justice to expose evil-doing in these 18 intriguing stories. Enriched by historical, political, religious, and legal observations, the tales are often favorably compared with Chesterton's Father Brown mysteries.
