This is partly my fault for not researching what this volume actually contained, but the title is very misleading. I thought this was going to be a collection on Arkham Asylum stories featuring the Scarecrow. In actuality it is a compendium of Scarecrow stories starting with the first in 1941 (World's Finest #3) ending with the recent Arkham city storyline (2013).

Unfortunately, the stories that were chosen for this compendium were quite repetitive. I think we read 5 or 6 incarnations of the origin story.

It was nice to see how the character changed as time went even if several of the stories had very similar (almost interchangeable) plots.
