This collection of 33 stories from 1908 chronicles the place with which O. Henry is most identified: New York City, which he called -Baghdad-on-the-Subway.- A very popular and prolific author, O. Henry is noted for his sentimental tales dealing with the lives of everyday people; he is also revered as a master of the surprise endings.
First published in 1908, these typical O. Henry short stories blend humour, sentiment and sentimentality. With a breezy, slangy style and specializing in recognizable types, they move quickly and the unexpected twist at the end of each is the O. Henry patented trademark.
