Jacobs is now remembered for his macabre tale "The Monkey's Paw." However, the majority of his output was humorous in tone. Michael Sadleir described Jacobs' fiction thus: "I wrote stories of three kinds, describing the misadventures of sailor-men ashore, celebrating the artful dodger of a slow-witted village, and such of the macabre." In the seven selected short stories the reader will be able to know a little of each fascet of this versatile author. The Monkey's Paw A Golden Venture A Love-Knot An Adulteration Act Back to Back Establishing Relations Captain Rogers
