About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of O. Henry Encore by O. Henry. Read in English by Thomhand; Phil Schempf These 45 early stories, sketches and poems by the famed O. Henry, nearly all published under the pseudonym of the "Post Man", were discovered in the files of the Houston Post, 1895-1896, by Mary Sunlocks Harrell while she was conducting research in 1934-35 for her M.A. degree at the University of Texas. These writings were published just before O. Henry, or Will Porter as he was known at that time, fled to Honduras in July of 1896 after being charged with embezzlement. (Summary by Fritz)
