O. Henry's Cabbages and Kings was his first volume and is regarded to be his only fictional book. The storyline entails a list of short narratives, which were encouraged by his visit in Honduras in the 19th century. "The incidents embracing as they do, a variety of subjects, hang loosely together, so loosely in fact, that at times one finds no apparent connection between them at all, and yet in the end one sees how each is intimately related to the other. ...Written by a less able hand than O. Henry's the book might have been a sad jumble, perhaps comprehensible to none but the Walrus--but as it is, one finds a joy in its every obscurity." -- The New York Times Book Review, Dec. 17, 1904) Cabbages and Kings comprises the following: The Proem: By the Carpenter; "Fox-in-the-morning"; The Lotus and the Bottle; Smith; Caught; Cupid's Exile Number Two; The Phonograph and the Graft; Money Maze; The Admiral; The Flag Paramount; The Shamrock and the Palm; The Remnants of the Code; Shoes; Ships; Masters of Arts; Dicky; Rouge et Noir; Two Recalls; and The Vitagraphoscope. William Sydney Porter popular by his pseudonym O. Henry, was a United States author primarily of children’s stories. His tales are well known for their bittersweet finales. O. Henry's pieces is all-inclusive, and his rolls can be seen meandering around the farmlands of Texas, discovering the craft of the flimflammer, or fact-finding the strains of society and prestige in sophisticated New York. O. Henry had an artsy style for setting apart nitty-gritties of social class and depicting it with an farfetched parcity and subtlety of etymology. Many of his major and minor crafts is contained in Cabbages and Kings, several narratives which uncovers a bit of discrete feature of life in a pallidly sluggish Central America and giving more details of a more interesting storyline.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

O. Henry penned more than 600 short literary works. Many critics assert that only 20 of his works were highly successful because of their theme and exceptional style and his skill in creating stories that are mostly realistic. Out of these well-crafted stories include The Gift of the Magi; The Cop and the Anthem; Man about Town; A Cosmopolite in a Cafe and Mammon and the Archer. This is a selection of five awe-inspiring tales that his readers would love to read all over again. William Sydney Porter popular by his pseudonym O. Henry, was a United States author primarily of children's stories. His tales are well known for their bittersweet finales. O. Henry's pieces is all-inclusive, and his rolls can be seen meandering around the farmlands of Texas, discovering the craft of the flimflammer, or fact-finding the strains of society and prestige in sophisticated New York. O. Henry had an artsy style for setting apart nitty-gritties of social class and depicting it with an farfetched parcity and subtlety of etymology. Many of his major and minor crafts is contained in Cabbages and Kings, several narratives which uncovers a bit of discrete feature of life in a pallidly sluggish Central America and giving more details of a more interesting storyline. One of his much preferred story is the Roads of Destiny comprising: The Guardian of the Accolade, The Discounters of Money, The Enchanted Profile, Next to Reading Matter, Art and the Bronco, Phœbe, A Double-dyed Deceiver, The Passing of Black Eagle, A Retrieved Reformation, Cherchez la Femme, Friends in San Rosario, The Fourth in Salvador, The Emancipation of Billy, The Enchanted Kiss, A Departmental Case, The Renaissance at Charleroi, On Behalf of the Management, Whistling Dick's Christmas Stocking, The Halberdier of the Little Rheinschloss, Two Renegades, and The Lonesome Road.
