| Publisher Description: In her fiction, Jessie Brown Pounds preserved the flavor of Ohio's rural village culture as the nineteenth century drew to a close. This anthology rediscovers Pounds's varied works and reminds modern students that Middle-Western culture included women writers as social critics and mythmakers. Included are short stories, sketches, one undated short story published posthumously in 1921, and Rachael Sylvestre, a first-person historical novel written in 1904. |
