Andrew's Books

Attorney Andrew Barger uncovered that Nathaniel Hawthorne put the rumored affair of Edgar Allan Poe and Frances Osgood in The Scarlet Letter. The result is Andrew’s academic book: The Affair of Edgar Poe and Frances Osgood in The Scarlet Letter. Andrew also created a study guide to direct educators and students through this previously unknown layer of Hawthorne’s most famous book.

​

Frustrated at the lack of scholarship regarding classic horror short stories, Andrew started reading forgotten magazines to find the very best from the nineteenth century. The results are his annotated anthologies and free classic horror and Gothic stories he provides on his website, too. Boo!​

They say everything that can be written has been written.

I say we are just getting started. ---Andrew Barger
