Editor's Note: In these volumes the word adventure has been used in its broadest sense to cover not only strange happenings in strange places but also love and life and death--all things that have to do with the great adventure of living. Questions as to the fitness of a story were settled by examining the qualities of the narrative as such rather than by reference to a technical classification of short stories.
