5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Collection from a Great Author, March 14, 2003

This review is from: The Best of O'Henry: Over 100 Stories Including the Gift of the Magi and the Furnished Room (Hardcover)
With over 100 short stories from America's most popular short story writer, this is ideal for an O'Henry fan, a fan of excellently crafted short stories, a person who appreciates fine writing or just someone who wants a great read.

It contains not only arguably his most well known works - "the Gift of the Magi" and "the Furnished Room" but tales from South of the Border, small town stories, shady business tales, stories of crooks and con artists, tales set in the Wild West and busy city streets. They can make you laugh, weep and feel the strings of romance sound in your heart.

Even if you've not read his work since high school, you will be enchanted by the way the stories have held up over the years - a work of a true master.

There are many collections of O'Henry on the market - this is one of, if not, the best I've seen. I recommend this book very highly.
