I first discovered Existentialism from Dostoevsky to Sartre by Walter Kaufmann at a Library book sale where I picked up a cheap paperback copy. I had by this time read some excerpts of Sartre and I think a bit of Kierkegaard and knew of Kaufmann from his work with Goethe's Faust and the works of Nietzsche. It was originally published in 1956, but has been republished through 2003, though I don't know how much updating Kaufmann did over the years.
Still, this was a great introduction to the philosophy of existentialism in both literature and philosophy.
