About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of Great Detective Stories by Allan Pinkerton. Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers. Allan Pinkerton, founder of the Pinkerton Detective Agency, wrote a number of "great detective stories", which he claimed were "literally true". We may call this assertion into question, but they were doubtless based, however loosely, on his actual experiences. This volume brings together two of the stories, The Somnambulist and the Detective; and The Murderer and the Fortuneteller. - Summary by LynneT
