Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Legrand is an eccentric hermit who lives on Sullivan’s Island, South Carolina, with his faithful servant Jupiter. One day, he finds a golden scarab-like bug with a strange fluorescence emanating from its surface. Driven by intuition, Legrand decides to draw the bug on an old parchment recovered from a shipwreck. But when he exposes the parchment to the heat of the fire, something extraordinary happens: the drawing of the bug transforms into a human skull, revealing a cipher written in invisible ink that indicates the location of a fabulous hidden treasure. With the help of his friend the narrator and Jupiter, Legrand embarks on a race against time and logic to decipher the code and discover the treasure. Will he succeed in his quest for the treasure? A gripping and suspenseful story, “The Gold-Bug” is a work of great literary and historical value, published in 1843. It is considered one of the first examples of cryptographic literature, as it describes in detail the process of deciphering a monoalphabetic substitution cipher. Poe, a master of the Gothic and the mysterious, was inspired by his own stay on Sullivan’s Island to create an evocative and fascinating setting for the story. The story, with its intricate plot and memorable characters, helped to spread cryptography to the general public and has fascinated generations of readers, genre enthusiasts, and puzzle lovers. The Gold-Bug remains a relevant and captivating work today, with its blend of mystery, adventure, and intellect.

Book excerpt: 2018 Reprint of 1909 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition. Not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Also Includes Poe's The Murders in the Rue Morgue and the Raven. Edgar Allan Poe's The Gold-Bug is as iconic to cryptography in literature as David Kahn's Codebreakers is to historical publications on the subject. It became one of Poe's most read and best-known stories. Many readers have taken their first steps in cryptology after reading Poe's story - some even became important codebreakers - and more than a few writers were inspired by Poe to write their own story with secret writing and encrypted messages in it. The Gold-Bug is not only an exciting story about the discovery of an old treasure, but also a great introduction to cryptography and codebreaking. It tickles the reader's curiosity and Poe provides a detailed description of how to decipher the cryptogram. While doing so, he also provides the solution. However, deciphering the message yourself can be more entertaining than reading how Legrand did it in the story.

Book excerpt: The Gold-Bug Edgar Allan Poe A Classic Horror Story "The Gold-Bug" is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe. Set on Sullivan's Island, South Carolina, the plot follows William Legrand, who was recently bitten by a gold-colored bug. His servant, Jupiter, fears Legrand is going insane and goes to Legrand's friend, an unnamed narrator, who agrees to visit his old friend. Legrand pulls the other two into an adventure after deciphering a secret message that will lead to a buried treasure. The story is often compared with Poe's "tales of ratiocination" as an early form of detective fiction. Poe became aware of the public's interest in secret writing in 1840 and asked readers to challenge his skills as a code-breaker. Poe took advantage of the popularity of cryptography as he was writing "The Gold-Bug," and the success of the story centers on one such cryptogram. The characterization of Legrand's servant Jupiter has been criticized as racist from a modern perspective, especially because his speech is written in dialect and because of his often comical dialogue. Poe submitted "The Gold-Bug" as an entry to a writing contest sponsored by the Philadelphia Dollar Newspaper. His story won the grand prize and was published in three installments, beginning in June 1843. The prize also included $100, probably the largest single sum Poe received for any of his works. "The Gold-Bug" was an instant success and was the most popular and most widely read of Poe's works during his lifetime. It also helped popularize cryptograms and secret writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Believing William Legrand to have gone insane following an insect bite, his friend initially decries his quest for gold as the ramblings of a madman. Yet when Legrand's conviction fails to waiver, they set off on a bizarre journey, accompanied by Jupiter, Legrand's loyal and equally sceptical servant. What follows is a strange tale of coded messages, hidden treasure, and uncanny prophecy that will both enthral and baffle even the most perceptive readers. Part horror story, part detective fiction, The Gold Bug is an ingenious tale bearing all the hallmarks of Poe's extraordinary narrative skill.

Poe is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.
