The last gathering of O. Henry’s work, named for The Rolling Stone, the comic weekly Will Porter ran in Austin, Texas, in 1894 while working as a bank teller. Alongside stories such as “The Dream”, “A Ruler of Men” and “The Marquis and Miss Sally” come burlesques, poems and newspaper squibs from the years before he became famous.
For readers who want to see O. Henry before the twist endings were polished, and the Texas years that shaped him. Download the free EPUB.
