O. Henry: 101 Stories (LOA #345)

By: O. Henry

The ultimate O. Henry: an annotated edition of classic tales by America's master storyteller Texas troubadour, convicted embezzler, and adopted New Yorker William Sidney Porter—better known as O. Henry—was one of the world’s great storytellers. A master of cunning plots and a gifted humorist, he is best known today for his beloved tale “The Gift of the Magi.” But O. Henry’s palette of moods and methods was as expansive as his exuberant imagination. This Library of America volume offers a fresh look at the full range of his literary genius. Here are 101 stories, including such favorites as “The Ransom of Red Chief,” “The Last of the Troubadours,” and “The Cop and the Anthem,” alongside lesser-known and previously uncollected stories, including three early tales published here for the first time. With full annotation and a newly researched chronology of Porter’s life and career, this is a definitive edition for modern readers of a major American writer.

The Complete Short Stories

Rolling Stones; Cabbages and Kings; Options; Roads of Destiny; The Four Million; The Trimmed Lamp; The Voice of the City; Whirligigs and more

By: O. Henry

Most of O. Henry's stories are set in his own time, the early 20th century. Many take place in New York City and deal for the most part with ordinary people: clerks, policemen, waitresses, etc. O. Henry's work is wide-ranging, and his characters can be found roaming the cattle-lands of Texas, exploring the art of the con-man, or investigating the tensions of class and wealth in turn-of-the-century New York. O. Henry had an inimitable hand for isolating some element of society and describing it with an incredible economy and grace of language. Some of his best and least-known work is contained in Cabbages and Kings, a series of stories each of which explores some individual aspect of life in a paralytically sleepy Central American town, while advancing some aspect of the larger plot and relating back one to another. Table of Contents: Cabbages And Kings: The Proem By The Carpenter "Fox-in-the-morning" The Lotus And The Bottle Smith Caught Cupid's Exile Number Two The Phonograph And The Graft Money Maze The Admiral The Flag Paramount The Shamrock And The Palm The Remnants Of The Code Shoes Ships Masters Of Arts Dicky Rouge Et Noir Two Recalls The Vitagraphoscope Heart of the West My Tussle with the Devil by O. Henry's Ghost O Henryana Options Roads of Destiny Rolling Stones Sixes and Sevens Strictly Business The Four Million The Gentle Grafter The Trimmed Lamp The Two Women The Voice of the City Waifs and Strays Whirligigs Biography of O. Henry… William Sydney Porter (1862–1910), known by his pen name O. Henry, was an American writer. O. Henry's short stories are known for their wit, wordplay, warm characterization, and surprise endings.

Lockport Blues

By: John Henry Hoffman

When a series of tragic murders that occurred in 1958 appear to be repeating in 1978, Henry County, Kentucky Sheriff Jace Sterling and FBI agent Dee O’Brian find themselves caught in the crossfire of events that are unraveling the fiber of a small rural community. From the wooded valleys of central Kentucky to the halls of power in Washington D.C. and London to the waterfront warehouses of Palermo, the pair will find themselves engulfed in a whirlwind of deception and intrigue. An old and ruthless Mafia enemy has re-surfaced and there would be retribution written in blood before a final justice could be measured out.

CHRISTIAN OUTLAWS

By: James H. Henry

The world's governments, including the United States of America, have decreed that person or persons who worship one historical figure known as Jesus Christ be detained and sent to a reeducation center. Worshipping the historical figure known as Jesus Christ has been outlawed due to the terroristic and intolerant nature of this religion. Those individuals found to be guilty of worshipping the historical figure will be detained until they renounce this intolerant philosophy. Since the above decree, Christians have been forced to hide. The church, the bride of Christ, has been forced to go underground. Christians around the world have formed into small groups. Gene teaches, supplies, leads, and loves one such group of people. As he goes out to gain supplies for his flock, he is kidnapped by a group of bounty hunters looking for a big payday. Now Uncle Gene, as he is known to his brothers and sisters in Christ, must endure the horrors of a fallen world to protect his fellow Christians, protect his faith in Christ, and try to save those who hate him. 2
