Barron's published a first US and Canadian edition in 1989, retaining the Marks illustrations. Summaries "On a wild, stormy night, Annie is offered a ride by a tall, silent horseman. She overcomes her fear of the ghost who is said to haunt the lonely road and accepts the ride—but who is this mysterious stranger?" --library catalogue summary

Notable quotes

“It is better to meet danger than to wait for it. He that is on a lee shore, and foresees a hurricane, stands out to sea and encounters a storm, to avoid a shipwreck.”
— Charles Caleb Colton, Lacon, or Many Things in Few Words (1820–1822), Vol. I; CCXLVIII.
“Tempests occasionally shake our dwellings and dissipate our commerce; but they scourge before them the lazy elements, which without them would stagnate into pestilence.”
— Thomas Erskine, speech for the defendant in Rex v. John Stockdale (9 December 1798), in Speeches of Lord Erskine While at the Bar, edited by James Lambert High (Chicago: Callaghan and Cockcroft, 1871), Vol. II, p. 69.
“The thunderstorm is a constant phenomenon, raging alternately over some part of the world or the other. Can a single man or creature escape death if all that charge of lightning strikes the earth?”
— Kalki Krishnamurthy, in "Sivakozhundu of Tiruvazhundur" as translated in Kalki : Selected Stories (1999).
“We know the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong. Do you not think an angel rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm?”
— John Page in a letter to Thomas Jefferson (20 July 1776), quoting a phrase from Ecclesiastes 9:11.
“Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes.”
— Jay Wolpert, The Count of Monte Cristo (2002) (character of Edmond Dantès; screenplay based on the novel by Alexandre Dumas).
“For many years I was self-appointed inspector of snow-storms and rain-storms and did my duty faithfully.”
— Henry David Thoreau, Walden
