SHORT STORIES
By
Collection of stories with central interest focused on a child -- a natural touch, little sentimentality but much heart. There's a boy and baseball, a boy and a goat, a lonely English refugee and a lonely drunk, a moonshiner and his little girl, a partially autobiographical family story, The House, three Civil War stories, and three small classics in boy-cum-dog stories, The Biscuit Eater, Weep No More. My Lady and Please Come Home, My Lady. Directly appealing and surely popular handling.
