This 1st edition anthology of short stories from 1847-1947 showcases the brilliance of literary giants such as Wolfe, Dahl, Steinbeck, Fitzgerald, Kipling, Hemmingway, and Chekhov. It features about 70 authors. The book doesn’t number them and I’m the worst at counting, even when I count twice. The table of contents, included in the photos, includes all the authors featured.

The treasury of short stories is a must-have for any book collector or literature enthusiast. It’s a great read for anyone who appreciates the art of storytelling.

Overall condition is good.

Interior pages have a nice deckled edge and are in great shape. The binding is in good shape. The front inside has the first book owners name and date.

The exterior cover has a little discoloration and wear on the corners and top/bottom of the spine.
