This review is from: Short Stories Old and New (Kindle Edition)
As the other reviewers have stated, these classics are always a great read. The story list will be welcome to all who consider ordering this item. Be aware that the formatting does not include an interactive Table of Contents but it is worth the time to use the Add a Note feature on your Kindle to mark the beginning of each story for easy access.
