Selected Stories of Duncan Campbell Scott (Canadian Short Story Library)

Although he is perhaps better known as a poet, Duncan Campbell Scott's many short stories are worthy of attention for their quiet power and enduring readability. This volume brings together a selection of stories that range across many diverse settings: a typical village of nineteenth-century Quebec, a genteel household in the Ottawa of the 1870s, and the isolation of an Indian village on the north short of Lake Superior, among others.
