Sobre IBD

Journalist, short story writer, poet, and critic Ambrose Bierce has been called one of America’s greatest wits and an uncompromising satirist. He wrote unsparingly and with haunting realism of his Civil War experiences. His finest and most famous Civil War writings are gathered in this volume of six essays and twenty stories, including 'An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge,' 'What I Saw of Shiloh,' and 'A Horseman in the Sky.' Edited and introduced by William McCann, this annotated Warbler Classics edition also includes a detailed biographical timeline of Bierce’s life.
