Heart Of The West (Illustrated Edition)

The Heart of the West is a collection of short stories set in the American West, and may have been partially based on tales-tall or true-which O Henry heard during his wanderings in Texas and Mexico. There are nineteen short stories in this collection. Romance among the cattle-royalty is a recurring feature, as are the adventures in love and scraps of the humbler cow-punching classes. All of them could be told as quick anecdotes over a campfire; maybe some of them were once. O Henry has polished them up to a high shine, peopled them with vivid characters, and wrung from them every drop of humour or pathos.
