Five stories of provincial life in the Great Lakes region by one of nineteenth-century America’s most noteworthy female authors.

Constance Fenimore Woolson was renowned in her time for her novels and short stories evoking the regional culture of the Great Lakes. Nearly forgotten by contemporary readers, her work and reputation have enjoyed a significant resurgence in recent years. This collection presents five of her most beloved short stories: “Solomon,” “Wilhelmina,” “St. Clair Flats,” “The Lady of Little Fishing,” and “Macarius the Monk.”

Originally published in 1875, this collection showcases Woolson’s insight into the quiet dramas of rural American life in the nineteenth century—animated by thwarted loves, familial tensions, and divisions of race and class—as well as her ear for regional dialect and her concern for nature and the environment.
