One dollar and eightyseven cents. And the next day would be Christmas. And so we begin O. Henry's best known and timeless story, which stands as a shining example of O. Henry's writing at its best. For in it we have the simplicity of concept, the irony of circumstance, and the charming surprise at the end... which we won't reveal here. It's a wonderful romantic tale of a young married couple who have little money to buy each other Christmas presents....

This is quite a story. For there are some stories that are so individually significant that they speak for an entire area of history.

Robert Shurtleff fought with the Fourth Massachusetts Regiment during the American Revolution, suffering at least two wounds in battle.

History by its expansive nature is selective. Perhaps, in the case of women, a bit too selective. Deborah Gannett is...
