About this book

Two friends leave Lake Erie behind for the hills of eastern Ohio, where a German community lives beside the Tuscarawas River. Dora and Erminia enjoy its food, orchards and old chorals before setting out to find a sulphur spring. Their walk brings them to a neglected log house and a gaunt shepherd dog. In the opening story of this collection, Constance Fenimore Woolson sets lively conversation against close descriptions of landscape and village life.

The waters of St. Clair Flats offer a different kind of uncertainty. A narrator and Raymond thread their boat through reeds and lily pads, following directions toward the home of a man called Waiting Samuel. The shifting channels make the surroundings part of the action. These American short stories suit readers interested in regional settings, distinctive voices and the small encounters through which visitors learn about unfamiliar communities.
