THE PERFECT GIFT FOR BOOK LOVERS: Get all 7 of O. Henry’s classic Thanksgiving and Christmas stories, including "The Gift of the Magi," in one short story collection!

Complete with helpful notes about each short story's biographical and cultural contexts


“There are just as many real Christmas stories as ever, if we would only dig ’em up,” wrote William Sydney Porter. The first short story he published under the pen name O. Henry was a holiday tale (“Whistling Dick’s Christmas Stocking”), while his best-known work, “The Gift of the Magi,” has inspired countless Yuletide movies and television episodes. Library of America presents all seven of his seasonal offerings—including two about Thanksgiving, the “one day that is purely American”:

  • The Purple Dress 
  • Two Thanksgiving Day Gentlemen
  • Whistling Dick’s Christmas Stocking
  • A Chaparral Christmas Gift
  • Christmas by Injunction
  • The Gift of the Magi
  • Compliments of the Season

You’ll meet characters only O. Henry could have imagined: Maida, a shop clerk who scrimps and saves for a new dress to wear to the employee holiday party. Stuffy Pete, a homeless man who suffers through the generosity of back-to-back Thanksgiving dinners. The Frio Kid, a murderous outlaw who unexpectedly commits a single act of generosity. Whistling Dick, a tramp who stumbles upon a potentially lethal act of arson and robbery. Cherokee, a gold prospector who strikes it rich and decides to play Santa Claus. And Fuzzy, an alcoholic “soldier of misfortune,” who stumbles upon the lost rag doll belonging to a millionaire’s five-year-old daughter. 

Always witty, often outrageously funny, and filled with O. Henry’s famous plot twists, these stories take readers from New Mexico and Texas, through New Orleans, and to New York City to find the holiday spirit all across America.

Great for everyday wear, vibrant dial, comfy band, no locking crowns. Would buy again.
Color: 6638: Gold band & Green dial
Excellent price point, stylish, and the pictures match what you get. The green is bright and vibrant and the gold band looks real although stainless. A great piece to wear all the time without worrying about losing value. Would buy again. My biggest complaint: The small crown do not lock so they get randomly hit and cant be trusted. The time kept is fine but do no expect to be able to lock the days in. The crown wont spin to lock them.

Looks really good.
Color: 6638: Gold band & Gold dial
Looks great, quality is really good too. Only downfall is that if you don't wear it everyday, you will have to wind it up and move it to get the second hand moving again and then set the time again i can get mine sit for a whole day without resetting time but by day two it has to be reset. Even with that, it's a great watch. Have gotten lots of compliments.

Beautiful, but doesn’t last
Color: 9910: All black
It’s beautiful, but does not last. Purchased as a gift for my husband and it stopped working altogether and wasn’t able to be wound after a few weeks. We returned it. He really missed having it so we ordered a new one, hoping to have better luck. This one lasted a few months but the needle for then”Day of the week” has since fallen off today. Very disappointing.
