Note Relating to Cather
"For the most part [mystery stories] are read and thrown aside and forgotten as quickly as a puzzle that is solved, for they contain none of the elements of lasting satisfaction. Of course there are notable exceptions. ... But of all the stories of mystery, old and new, give us The Wrecker, by that master of the art of telling a good tale, Robert Louis Stevenson."
