This collection of 100 of О.Henrys finest stories is a showcase for the sheer variety of one of Americas best and best-loved short story writers. The variety of the stories is amazing; О.Henry is as at home describing life south of the Rio Grande as he is chronicling the activities and concerns of "the four million" ordinary citizens who inhabited turn-of-the-century New York. They are marked by coincidence and surprise endings as well as the compassion and high humour that have made О. Henrys stories popular for the last century.
