This vintage book contains Edgar Allen Poe’s 1843 short story, “The Gold-Bug”. An unnamed narrator is compelled to visit his friend who has been bitten by a golden bug. When he arrives at Sullivan’s Island, South Carolina, the narrator and his friend’s servant are drawn into a thrilling adventure that revolves around the deciphering of a secret code and the hunt for the treasure that it leads to. Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849) was an American author, editor, poet, and critic.
