The Chief of the Redskin with Illustrations

The book includes stories by the famous American writer O. Henry, recognized as a master of short stories with unexpected endings. Their heroes are sometimes just "little people" from big New York, sometimes carefree and cheerful artists and writers, sometimes... guys from a tough gang area and their touchingly faithful girlfriends, sometimes inhabitants of the Wild West — cowboys, ranchers, farmers. Their plots are always captivating and engaging, the conclusions are swift and unexpected. They are all filled with subtle humor, unexpected comparisons, and unpredictable endings. The heroes of the stories are noble and romantic, inventive and resourceful, optimistic and full of life, finding a way out of any situation!
One of the main virtues of O. Henry’s stories is, of course, their humor, understandable to both adults and children.
O. Henry's stories are studied in grades 5–7.
The edition comes with wonderful illustrations by Anastasia Mukhanova.
