Excerpt from The Harvest Moon and Other Poems Old Camel's Hump, whose Shadow-line Reaches. Winooski's wood of pine. Lifted to heaven, in somberest pall Westward long stretches a sky-line wall, The Old Green Mountains' storm-smit ridge, A buttress spanned with azure bridge; Where slowly sinks through hazy blue The red sun down beyond our view.

Excerpt from Gleams of Scarlet: A Tale of the Canadian Rockies Night was fast approaching, the twilight, with its opal tints, giving place to; a begemmed heaven. The wheat fields gleamed under the young harvest moon, while here and there bright fires illumined the scene, being a sort of aftermath of the stubble.

S. T. Joshi has established himself as a leading critic and scholar of the weird tale. Having begun by studying the work of H. P. Lovecraft, Joshi has expanded his interests to include the entire range of horror fiction from such classics as Lord Dunsany and Algernon Blackwood to such contemporaries as Ramsey Campbell, Stephen King, and Clive Barker. In this generous sampling of the reviews that Joshi has written in nearly thirty years as a critic, we find trenchant analyses of writers ranging from Arthur Machen, E. F. Benson, and Shirley Jackson to Peter Straub, Thomas Ligotti, Norman Partridge, and David J. Schow. Joshi also addresses such significant themes in horror fiction as the subgenre of dark suspense, the haunted house, Arkham House and its legacy, and the work of the small press. Of particular note is a lengthy section devoted to H. P. Lovecraft, including studies of an array of Cthulhu Mythos writings and detailed examinations of recent Lovecraft scholarship. Joshi's essays and reviews are enlivened with a pungent wit and literary flair that bring to mind the work of John Clute and Brian Aldiss. S. T. Joshi is the author of such works as The Weird Tale (1990), H. P. Lovecraft: A Life (1996), and The Modern Weird Tale (2001). He has edited or coedited such important reference works as Supernatural Literature of the World: An Encyclopedia (2005) and Icons of Horror and the Supernatural (2006). His numerous publications have received the World Fantasy Award, the British Fantasy Award, the Horror Writers Association Award, and the International Horror Guild Award.
