Publisher's Summary
This is a story from the More Classic American Short Stories collection.
Here are eight stories from master American writers of the 19th century. They vary from sinister tales by Ambrose Bierce - why is that window boarded up? - and a reflective moment in the life of a woman without children, but forced to look after children, to classic short stories by O. Henry and Stephen Crane. There is even an elegiac description of an eclipse by James Fenimore Cooper, author of The Last of the Mohicans. Read with sensitivity and skill by Garrick Hagon and Liza Ross.
Editorial reviews
This selection from the More American Classic American Short Stories audio collection features master of telling details and narrative twists O. Henry, and an entertaining performance of his love story gone awry, The Princess and the Puma. Stage, radio, film and television actor Garrick Hogan (Biggs Darklighter in Star Wars: A New Hope) performs with just the right tone of comic skepticism as he brings to life "the cattle king", his daughter "the princess", and her quick-witted if also misbegotten and ultimately unsuccessful suitor.
