Andrew's Books

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 award-winning and annotated anthologies of Gothic literature. Boo!​

They say everything that can be written has been written.

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