Good collection of stories. Black Canaan is a favorite of mine. I have some doubts that REH would have finished The House with the suicide of John Conrad, but it is a Lovecraftian ending (Augest Derleth finished the REH fragment in this volume).

Black Heart and White Heart and Other Stories
H. Rider Haggard
Henry Rider Haggard loves to focus on adventure stories in Africa. In this story, he paid attention to love, magic and faith. At the heart of the story is the father who lost his daughter, due to the attack of the barbarians. The author well emphasizes the fact that faith can defeat savagery in this world and save from death.

Some such thoughts flitted vaguely through my mind that night as I groped along the narrow trail that wound through the deep pinelands. Such thoughts are likely to keep company with any man who dares invade, in the night, that lonely stretch of densely timbered river-country which the black people call Egypt, for some obscurely racial reason.
Max Brand
"Black Jack" is a grand western adventure story told by a masterful storyteller Max Brand about the son of a murdered bad guy who is raised as a fine gentleman. But, in truth, Terry is the son of the outlaw Black Jack Hollis. The story is about a bet between sister and brother whether genetics is stronger and the child will turn bad like his father or environment shall prove stronger and the child will become an outstanding citizen. As usual, Brands West is peopled with characters from mythology grander and much more eloquent than average dime-novel heroes.

Black Notes nie jest kolejną książką o tym, że wystarczy motywacja, a wszystko osiągniesz. Autorzy podejmują temat ciemnej strony w podążaniu za marzeniami. Doradzają, jak przygotować się do drogi po sukces oraz jak go utrzymać. Jest to opisane krótko, ale dosadnie, pozostawiając czytelnikowi przestrzeń do przemyśleń i wniosków. Black Notes podkreśla, że świadomość, iż nie wszystko będzie się układało według planu, daje przewagę w starciu z przeciwnościami.
