Queer Stories for Boys and Girls

Abstract

This little collection of stories written for juvenile publications contains a last section of Modern Fables (177-86). The section contains three didactic, pointed animal stories. Do not miss the author's frustrated introduction. It seems that these stories have been the kiss of death. Some appeared in two books which went up in the Chicago fire of 1871. Others were published, but the publisher immediately went bankrupt and pawned the plates, which the author eventually had to buy back! Pirated editions have appeared. Oh my, oh my...!
