Early in his career, Welsh author Arthur Machen got caught up in an unusual controversy when "The Bowmen," a fictional tale he published about supernatural beings coming to the aid of British soldiers during the World War I Battle of Mons, began to be interpreted as a factual account by some readers. This volume collects "The Bowmen" and several thematically similar tales.
