Title: The Dream Detective Being Some Account of the Methods of Moris Klaw
Description: London, England: Jarrolds Publishers, 1921. Popular Edition.. Hardcover. Illustrated by W. Dewar. B&W Illustrations; This book is in Very Good- condition and is lacking a dust jacket. The book has some edge wear, nicking and bumping, along with some light tearing to the bottom spine end of the book cover. The covers have some spots of discoloratoin to the front spine joint. The text pages are generally clean, but has some toning due to the acid content of the paper. "Published in 1925, The Dream Detective recounts ten cases in the career of Moris Klaw. Klaw is pretty much what you’d expect an occult investigator to be - a rather shabby and oddly dressed old man, tall and stooped and with a bald head, and with a prodigious knowledge of the occult. There is a fascinating difference though that sets these stories apart from the psychic detective stories of other writers. In most cases the psychic detective investigates supernatural happenings (or happenings assumed to be supernatural) using the methods of science (albeit very unconventional science of an occult nature). But Moris Klaw’s cases are essentially straightforward if unusual crimes without any overt supernatural elements, but he investigates them by methods that are most certainly occult." (Vintage Pop Fiction website). Very Good- .
