Short Stories for Discussion is a
collection of twenty-five short stories,
one of which was written by Jesse
Stuart, “Rain on Tanyard Hollow.”
Stuart also added an essay, entitled
“How I Write My Short Stories.” After
his essay there are three examples of
short stories, one of which was written
by his daughter, Jane. The book was
designed as a college preparatory text-book for high school students on the
literature of the short story. The book
was also issued as a soft-cover edition.
Albert K. Ridout was the head of the
English Department at Pelham Memorial
High School at Pelham, New York, when
the book was published. John Wilson
Townsend was an attorney who lived in
Boston and was a close friend of Jesse
Stuart. This was the first of two
textbooks that Stuart help to select and
edit.
