A Glimpse of America - and other Lectures, Interviews and Essays

Bram Stoker bequeathed more than Dracula and other lesser-known novels when he died in April 1912. He had also written works of non-fiction, most notably Personal Reminiscences of Henry Irving and Famous Impostors. As for his numerous shorter pieces – articles, features, essays, interviews – most lay forgotten, unseen by modern readers. Some are now gathered in the present volume. Stoker sheds light on the workings of the theatre, on his admiration for the United States, and reveals much about himself in his interviews with the great and the good, from Winston Churchill to Arthur Conan Doyle.
