Introduction by China Miéville
 Long acknowledged as a master of nightmarish visions,   H. P. Lovecraft established the genuineness and dignity of his own pioneering fiction   in 1931 with his quintessential work of supernatural horror, At the Mountains of   Madness. The deliberately told and increasingly chilling recollection of an Antarctic   expedition's uncanny discoveries-and their encounter with untold menace in the ruins   of a lost civilization-is a milestone of macabre literature. 
 This exclusive new   edition, presents Lovecraft's masterpiece in fully restored form, and includes his   acclaimed scholarly essay "Supernatural Horror in Literature." This is essential   reading for every devotee of classic terror.
