One could do worse than getting the collection edited by S. T. Joshi or the one E. F. Bleiler did some years ago. A great deal of Blackwood is worth reading, though, and I'd suggest first checking into Joshi's
The Weird Tale, which has a very good chapter on Blackwood's writing. This should help you find those which you're more interested in. Current books well worth getting, though, would include the Hippocampus Press reprint of
Incredible Adventures and the Wildside Press edition of
The Centaur....
