Cover of William Dean Howells: Counterfeit Presentment and The Parlour Car (PDF)

This collection brings together two of William Dean Howells’ earliest full-length dramas. A Counterfeit Presentment recounts an out-of-the-ordinary encounter that takes place in a hotel lobby. In The Parlour Car, Howells blends his trademark brand of social realism with a more traditional comedy of manners.
